While at Roman Cucina the other night, I ordered an Italian Surfer martini (Malibu, Amaretto, pineapple juice, cranberry juice).
Aaaand, it was delicious.
[in case you couldn’t tell from my facial expression]
Husband decided to recreate the drink with the supplies we had on hand last night . Malibu, check. Amaretto, check. Juice of the required form, ummm no. Brilliant man that he is, he substituted the pineapple/cranberry juices with the homemade strawberry lemonade we had in the fridge.
results: amazing.
[we drank half before we even thought to take a picture. whoopsies!]
the mix:
1 part Malibu
1 part Amaretto
2 parts Strawberry Lemonade
Southern California love from our cocktail shaker to yours.
