This is from the Three Olives website, again they call it a Martini, but we know better.
A warning to the gentle reader, these are very tasty and light which could lead quite easily to excessive consumption before you know it.
Perhaps that's the source of the name, just a few of these and you may find yourself dancing nekkid under the Midsummer's moon. I used a bit more lime juice and that produced just the right balance between sweet and tart.
This is now in the top of my list of aperitifs. You could use less lime juice & a sugar rimmed glass for a slightly sweeter dessert version.
Midsummer's Cocktail
