Traditional mojitos, of course, are off the table on an anti-Candida diet. This one provides the classic flavor combination in a beverage that will leave you refreshed and nourished instead of dehydrated or hung over. Sounds like a great trade to me! It’s also a creamy, rich-tasting drink that will satisfy a sweet craving beautifully.
