Valentines Day is just around the corner and if you want to win the heart of your spouse, try this Cranberry Mojito. Guaranteed to win him or her over, this fresh and light cocktail is dangerously delicious and just right for a celebration! I added a splash of club soda to give it a little sparkle but that’s optional if you’d prefer not to.  There’s enough simple syrup in the recipe to make about 6 of these lovelies, if you’re making for a party, but the syrup will keep in the fridge for about 2 weeks if you’re only making one or two.
