10 Minute Tailgate: Miami
This week the Hokies Travel down to Coral Gables to face Miami. So for this week, I decided to create a sharable slider based on the cuban sandwich. To pair with this, I put my own twist on a south Florida staple, the mojito. The cuban sliders and watermelon mojito add a little tropical flare to your Hokie Tailgate.
