Fresh Herbs + Cocktails = More than just Mojitos! The March issue of Martha Stewart Living includes some great ideas for using fresh herbs to spruce up your next cocktail party.
Martha’s Mint-Ginger Caipiroska mellows out the sharpness of vodka with fresh ginger and mint; the Cilantro Negroni combines orange juice, fresh cilantro, campari, sugar, and club soda for a brilliantly pink-hued tipple; and the tequila-thyme lemonade is as sweet and sassy as it sounds.
For more ideas about how to use fresh herbs to brighten up a cocktail, see Martha’s website. There you’ll find recipes for Rosemary Martinis, Lillet-Basil Cocktails, Watermelon-Basil Margaritas, and so much more. There are even non-alcoholic drink recipes for Herbal Soda Pop and Lavender Lemonade.
Branch out from the standard mojito and give these herbalicious cocktails a try!
