Ingredients
Method
- 1A very herbal tasting drink, yet sweet, cold & refreshing. A blend of citrus with a distinctive green hue that tantalizes ones senses while everyone else turns green with envy of such a pretty drink.Very Simple, makes between 3 - 5 drinks:
- 2Fill average to large blender with ice (yet leave enough room to get the lid on!)
- 3Pour in Svedka Clementine (or citrus flavored vodka) over the ice and fill between the quarter & half mark on the blender's mesurement collumn.
- 4Splash in some orange juice until the fluid surrounding the ice resembles an orange juice shade of yellow. *(more or less depending upon taste)
- 5Pluck leaves from the sprigs of mint & lemon verbena/lemon balm leaving the top most tiny leaves on the sprig. Do not throw away the sprig because it is a nice garnish to plant into the drink next to a straw for some added asthetic.
- 6Add leaves of both mint & lemon verbena/lemon balm. to the top of mixture already in blender. Allow your blender to pulse/mix vigorously until the mixture resembles an avocado colored slush. Pour into your favorite long stem glass (margarita or costume wine glasses look best) and adorn with a lime slice and/or the sprigs from mint or lemon verbena/lemon balm. for a professional touch, a cocktail umbrella or a colored straw also sets this drink off well.
