I am so excited to have Will from the wildly popular blog, Bright.Bazaar, dazzling us with his cocktail skills this week. I was thrilled to get to work with Will last summer and it's a pleasure to now call him a friend (he even came to visit me
this summer). He's a gem! I knew he'd come up with something fabulous. Take it away, Will!
Hello there! I'm Will and I write the daily interiors blog, Bright.Bazaar. I've been following Annette's work for a number of years now and I was lucky enough to meet her last summer when I went to stay with her in Italy. Well, a year later and we were toasting in her stunning Italian home once again! So, I thought I'd share with you all one of my favourite summer cocktails - Blackcurrant Mojito Fizz. This cocktail is perfect for barmy summer evenings, crisp yet refreshing, it's fruity notes and light fizz make for a great staple drink. Cheers, folks!
