Mojito del Perro was created in Miami in 2013 by two friends, Chris and Pete. They were trying to make a "dog friendly mojito". One that would dog friendly to humans as well!
It is a very refreshing cocktail and perfect for those hot summer days, or any day really. This drink got its name from the famous painting by Pablo Picasso - the “Dog Barking at the Moon”, which is also known as “Mojito Del Perro” in Spanish.
