La Floridita

Tried this with fresh lime juice, real lime juice concentrate Roses lime juice and finally Key limes fresh squeezed. The last version with Key limes fresh squeezed were by far the best. This is the "perfect" before dinner cocktail. little tart a little bit sweet and delicous. Although I really would not want to drink more than 3 or 4 of them in one sitting, My next recipe will call for maybe an amber rum.

I prepared this drink not deviating from the original recipe four different times, different lime components, each time. Natural lime, real lime concentrate, Rose's lime juice and finally Key limes fresh squeezed.The Key lime recipe is by far the best tasting (IMHO) This is the perfect before dinner cocktail. Not too sweet, not too tart but a bit of both.I may try to use an amber rum the next time I make this just to switch things up.
