Limited Edition Cocktail: Choco-Strawberry Mojito

A “Limited Edition Cocktail” is something that can only be made with a certain ingredient that’s only available for a short time.

Here in this case, the “limited” ingredient is a chocolate mint that we only had a short while this past summer at my restaurant.
