The Taste

The first thing I taste in this drink is the melon from the Midori. That is quickly followed by both sharp notes from the lime and the subtle nutty flavors from the amaretto.

It’s a unique blend of ingredients, and it works to create a refreshing, sweet, fruity drink.

When to Serve It

This drink works well as an aperitif or as a tiny little sweet something at the end of a meal. It’s also a nice choice when you want to enjoy some shots that actually taste good and won’t lay you out on the floor immediately.

This is also a great drink for most any casual party or get-together among friends. But because of the name, it’s absolutely perfect to serve for parties for golf lovers.

Also serve it at:

• Golf tournaments or golf-themed parties
• Sports events or tailgate parties
• Summer parties or BBQs
• Outdoor gatherings, barbecues or picnics
• Pool parties or poolside events
• Bachelor parties or bachelor/bachelorette weekends
• Casino nights or gambling-themed parties
• Retirement parties or milestone celebrations
• Golf club events or member gatherings
• Charity fundraisers or auctions

Serving Tips

While a lot of shot-glass sized drinks are about getting as much alcohol into you as quickly as they can and damn the flavor, this one is more like a real, well thought out cocktail recipe.

In fact, you could scale up the size of the ingredients in this one and turn it into a regular sized cocktail. Just double each of the ingredient amounts.

And that gives you a tasty little cocktail with notes of lime, cherry-almond and melon all blended together deliciously. The flavor is so tasty and kind of unique among drink recipes.
