Mojito, LIME yours. 🍹

This by far has to be one of my favorite drinks to make! With spring around the corner, what a better way to celebrate than with a beautiful mojito! 🫐

Today we’re making an Empress Blueberry Mojito using Empress 1908 Gin. This gin has notes of juniper, rose, coriander seed, grapefruit peel, ginger root, cinnamon bark and butterfly pea blossoms! It not only makes it look beautiful, but taste so good!

My name is Jen Dao & I'm a foodie based in Orange County, CA! Originally born & raised in Savage, Minnesota, I grew up with a lot of traditional Vietnamese food because of my mother's home cooking.

At 19, I decided to spread my wings & move to Seattle, which would begin my food journey with cooking on my own.

Fast forward to present day, I'm now based in Orange County (some would say, foodie capital of the world!) and currently, I'm sharing daily recipes & food knowledge with my 80k+ following of fellow foodies!
