martini recipe

This tart but sweet martini recipe is our play on a Lemon Drop, with fresh lime juice instead of lemon juice!

Lime Drop Martini

vodka

Triple Sec, Cointreau or Grand Marnier

lime juice

lime

Rub a wedge of lime around the rim of a martini glass. Pour some of the sugar onto a shallow plate and then dip the rim of the martini glass into the sugar to coat the rim.

Add the vodka, triple sec and lime juice and 2 1/2 teaspoons of sugar to a cocktail shaker filled with ice. Shake well and then pour into the rimmed martini glass.

This is a good recipe; nice &amp; tart.  The sugar on the rim is key to balancing the acid.  I used a very grainy turbinado sugar, which added a sweet crunch to each sip.  Copied it down, this is a keeper.

One detail: you did not say what to do with the lime zest.  I tried to float it on top after pouring...

A delightful winter-themed martini with the tropical flavors of coconut, Blue Curacao, and pineapple.
