Dessert in a cocktail – that’s what this sunny, luscious Lemon Meringue Martini is! It will sweeten any day, brighten any summer party, and add sunshine to a cloudy day. Only the finest limoncello – Limoncello di Capri<\/em> from Italy – will impart the refreshing, citrusy aroma and rich lemon flavor that makes this cocktail extraordinary. It’s also incredibly easy to make.<\/p>\n Jump to Recipe<\/a><\/p>\n Adding egg white to a cocktail adds a lovely foamy texture (much like the foam topping a latte) and a silky mouthfeel – essential in this Lemon Meringue libation that goes down waaaay too easy. A rim of fine graham cracker crumbs further enhances the illusion of luscious lemon meringue pie – its bright tangy coolness pure pleasure on a hot summer day.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n In Italy, everyone drinks chilled lemon liqueur as an after dinner digestif and Limoncello di Capri is the #1 selling Limoncello in bars and restaurants in Italy, because it is made in the perfect way.\u00a0Limoncello di Capri is produced in small batches using\u00a0only IGP certified lemons grown on the Island of Capri\u00a0and in the Sorrento Peninsula. Limoncello di Capri is one\u00a0of the few brands of Limoncello produced using only real\u00a0lemons. And only one type of lemon – the \u201cOval of Sorrento\u201d, purchased directly from the farmers where\u00a0100% of the lemons are\u00a0fertilized naturally utilizing organic principles with no chemicals or fungicides ever used in\u00a0the brand\u2019s lemon groves.<\/p>\n * Adding egg white to cocktails imparts a velvety mouthfeel but very little in the way of flavor, so your drink will not taste eggy - I promise. Since the egg white is raw, use Davidson's Safest Choice\u00ae Eggs<\/a> which are pasteurized.<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Sun, sea, summer, elegance – that’s Limoncello di Capri. I’m a citrus lover through and through – in desserts, salads, cocktails, even notes of citrus in wine and perfume send sensory impulses of pleasure to my brain. I came home from China to a box containing a bottle of this liquid gold and I’ve\u00a0been obsessing ever since. Serve straight or with ice as a digestif\u00a0or palate cleanser,\u00a0enrich the flavor and aroma of other drinks, or in cooking and baking, on ice-cream or fruit salad.<\/p>\n Next time you serve salmon (or chicken) try this delicious Limoncello Strawberry Mango Relish<\/a> that was absolutely divine with fresh, wild King Salmon – the tart and sweet fruit with bright citrus and chunks of creamy avocado screams summer.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Before you head to the store to buy the necessary ingredients – beginning with Limoncello di Capri<\/a>, I want to tell you that I’ve finally joined the Yummly network which, since the demise of Ziplist, has been the space most recommended by other food bloggers for referral traffic and saving recipes.
