Cute name, huh.
4 dashes Sweet Vermouth
2 oz Southern Comfort
Juice of 1/2 Lime
First impression of the harmony of apricot(? from southern comfort) and grape wasn't pleasant for me, but eventually they worked out quite well as they mingled in.
Probably I should have shaked it as I was told to, but I still don't have my shaker with me ;_;
Probably would make it again if I have leftover lime juice on hand, but definitely won't take pains of juicing it from fresh lime to make it.

Boston Side Car
Boston has its own side car.
3/4 oz Brandy
3/4 oz Triple Sec
3/4 oz White Rum
Juice of 1/2 Lime
Still playing around with the lime, but I think I discovered that drinking/eating lime makes my throat soar. It's a pity that I like the lime ;_;
Well, this variation didn't live up to its original, in my opinion.

Blue Margarita
Another cocktail using the lime juice.
This turned out to be fine, but not that great.
1.5oz Tequila
1 oz Blue Curacao
1 oz Lime juice

Upon visiting the grocery, it occurred to me that it's a high season for the citrus.
Bought three of them, and juiced them all. This is the rare occasion where I actually use the real juice with the exception of Mojito.
As searching for the perfect recipe using this fresh and fragrant lime juice, I realized, simple recipes should do the best with this nice juice.
Oldies but Goodies. The well-known birth story of this cocktail includes the marketing of Smirnoff vodka for US. Well, it's pretty damn good to be the ad hoc recipe.
Build over ice
2 shots of vodka
1 shot of lime juice
3 dashes of Angostura Bitters
Top it with club soda.
Goooood :)

Mojito
One of my all time favorite. For me, regardless of the weather.
I just can do it any time of the season.
Keep changing the recipe, and believe I haven't reached the best.
(I guess, now that I stopped measuring for this, I will just hit the random low and random high for the drink. But, however it's made, good enough for me.)
I even bought a plant of mint for this.
By far the best recipe I followed was from Jefferey Morganthaler.
