Key Lime Martini

It's light and frothy.  It's not too sweet, not too tart and so easy to make.  It's the perfect martini to sip on the deck on a warm evening.  Move over Lemon Drop - there's a new drink in town!


2 oz Vanilla vodka
2 oz fresh squeezed lime
2 oz half and half or cream
2 heaping teaspoons powdered sugar

Fill shaker with ice. 
Add ingredients.
Shake until ice crystals form on shaker.
Pour into martini glass rimmed with fresh lime.

Garnish with a sprinkle of lime zest if you must.
This is a simple cocktail.  Less is more.

Enjoy!
