Story for a cocktail? None needed!
It’s a heck of a story by itself with the subtle nudges and tickles of flavours. The caress a cocktail offers to the imbiber ensures that she embraces it all too lovingly!
The rule here, as in love, is that there are no rules. The recipe is an indicator but experiment with this temptation and see what you like! You like them sweeter … go for it! More piquant and racy … add more lime juice! You like them hot … less ice cubes! Or ignite with a dash of tabasco and raise the temperature. In more ways than one!
Cocktails are mysterious and exciting things, much like the Mills and Boon heroes of our young impressionable age; they have the power to clasp you in a bear-hug and never let you go! Till you’re either mellow or dancing on the table! 😀
Take a cocktail shaker and let the games begin. The tequila, creme de menthe, and triple sec can congregate and intermingle here while you shake shake shake till they become bosom friends. No shaker, no worries! Use a bottle with a lid; the mix-ees won't mind!
Now that they are all united, pour the decadence in an inviting cocktail glass that has ice cubes clinking in it. Now acquaint two more characters with this medley: the sugar syrup and lime juice. Stir languidly with a stirrer.
Let your imagination run riot and adorn this seductive beauty with orbs of watermelon.
Put your feet up and chill! Indulge, imbibe, swig, slurp, wet one's whistle ! You're worth it!
