I’ve been wanting to make a cordial for awhile now, but I haven’t been able to decide what fruit I want to use. Then I saw a bag of key limes at the store the other day and decided that they would be it. I’ve never made a cordial and I didn’t really feel like getting special ingredients, so I searched and searched until I found a very basic recipe. I modified it a little by using limes instead of oranges and I added a few slices, which was probably the wrong thing to do. I have to let it do it’s thing for awhile, so it’s just sitting in our pantry but hopefully it will be worth the wait. I’m hoping in a few weeks I’ll be able to whip up some key lime martinis or maybe just a simple key lime vodka tonic. I’ll let you know how that works out for me… fingers crossed.
