In trying to find pictures for Throwback Thursday, I realized I have a lot of pictures of adult beverages (that is said with pride, by the way). As such, I’ve decided that rather than share pictures of me with bad 80s hair and glasses that legitimately covered half my face, I could easily share glasses of a much tastier kind. So without further ado, I present to you Thirsty Thursday, all the way from Hawaii (for some strange reason I have a lot of pictures from Hawaii that qualify for Thirsty Thursdays…)!!
This little baby is a coconut mojito. It was the first drink I had in Hawaii. Blended, not muddled and oh-so-tasty! While some at the table said the aftertaste was a bit reminiscent of catnip, I thought the creaminess of the coconut with the lingering of mint gave it an extra layer of delicious texture. Paired with a sinking sun and a beachside table at Duke’s in Waikiki, I was in heaven 🙂
PS–after some pressing and a lot harassment, it was clarified that it tasted LIKE catnip smells, not that anyone at the table partakes in catnip…at least that he/she is willing to admit!
Some people actually use catnip to make tea. I’m not sure why they would, but there you go…
perhaps they’re hoping for the “medicinal” properties that cats enjoy? 😉
