Asian Pear Mojito

In honor of my recent vacation, I decided to share my husband's famous Mojito recipe. We enjoyed the Asian Pear Mojito so much one day at PF Chang's that we decided to search for a comparable recipe and try to perfect it. According to all our friends, he has done just that. We even grow our own mint on our patio just for the occasional concoction. Fair warning: this cocktail has been called a little "too drinkable" and can sneak up on you quickly, so easy does it!
