The drink was created by Lauren Schell (the other half of The Everleigh team). Inspired by a traditional smash cocktail, it is a wonderful alternative to a Mojito and will be great for the upcoming summer. It’s light and refreshing, full of fresh fruit, mint and tasty [Sailor Jerry] rum. It's flavourful, fresh and citrusy, and goes down perhaps a little too easily.
