Lime

The name of this cocktail may derive from the custom of finishing it in one shot.

Blue curaçao provides the color and lime peel, the freshness.

This cross between a fizz and a float  — a new take on an old-fashioned treat is lovely warm-weather refreshment.

The classic drink from old Cuba is said to have been concocted by expatriate American miners with time on their hands. These tart, lime-loaded daiquiris were created by recipe developer Jeanne Thiel Kelley's father, when he had time on his hands.
