Meet the Key Lime Martini, a sweet and sour delight loved by many!
The martini’s roots dig into the depths of American cocktail culture and its unique flavor comes from key limes, Absolut Vanilia vodka, and notes of simple syrup. The final touch of a lemon garnish pulls it all together for a zesty kick.
Absolutely! In fact, Key Limes are a popular choice for cocktails as they have a distinctive, tart flavor that adds an extra kick.
Key Limes are small, round, and have yellowish-green skin, while regular limes, known as Persian Limes, are larger and darker green. But the biggest difference? Key Limes have a strong, aromatic zest and a tart, slightly sweet flavor that really sets them apart.
