Mojito

When I was in India we never had any alcholic drinks, I guess back at home it was not something one did, have anykind of alchool drinks atleast females ( well I am talking about when I was a teenager which is more than 2 decades ago) or should i say 3, that would be a bit too long :-)
Well if my hubby reads this ( he never reads my blog so no probs :-) he will say yeah now see the indian talking she should drink Nimboo pani than this :-), that is what he tell me always as a joke.
Can't help it as you know I blame my drinking habbits to my MIL as she is the one who taught me to learn wine etc............. now a days she don't have to ask F do you want a glass of wine , before she can say wine i am yeah yeah i want ................
Not that we have drinks everyday, when ever there is a party then drinks are just pouring be it in my place or in my inlaws place.
