When I am not pregnant I love drinking cocktails (occasional of course) and one of my faves is the classic Mojito. I was therefore thrilled when asked to try out some new fresh juices from Welch and they even supplied a Mocktail menu to experiment with…perfect for the bank holiday.

I was very generously sent a huge package including around 16 cartons of juice in a variety of flavours including:

  • 100% purple grape juice
  • 100% pure rose grape juice
  • 100% pure white grape juice

I couldn’t wait to start trying them.

The purple grape juice was a little strong for our family but watered down with a little soda water is very refreshing. Our overall favourite is the Pure Rose grape juice…delicious and perfect with lots of ice. Even the girls have enjoyed them.

In terms of the mocktails I tried these two and they were very good indeed.

White Grape Mojito

Armed with the freshest bunch mint from a friends garden I set to work making one of these straight away. Deliciously Moreish I must admit I enjoyed a few over the Jubilee weekend.

This one was gorgeous too. Very light and refreshing, perfect for Summer barbecues.
