I don't like a lot of drinks, but I do love Mojitos, and I also love Pina Coladas! So when I saw this recipe for Coconut Mojitos in People Magazine I had to write it down. I have been saving it for a while now and finally got to try it out now that I am no longer pregnant! They are really good and sweet; just how I like my drinks.
