So, my cocktails have been a hit! It is a big part of the La Villa Bonita experience as I bring in cool and fun drinks while we are cooking. I thought I would do another right? This one is so delicious. Guayabas or guavas as they are called in different places are the state fruit of Morelos where we are located. People from Morelos are called Guayabos. Now add in some ginger, some gin and you have a fabulous, fruity and refreshing gin and tonic.
