When Levon was six months old, we spent five amazing days in Maui, where we discovered the hotel’s signature poolside cocktail: the pomegranate mojito. After returning home, I spent several weekends trying to recreate the recipe, which became our go-to summer cocktail to serve at parties. The key is to infuse the juice + rum mixture overnight.
Get the recipe below, plus photos of sweet baby Levon from our trip!
