It’s great to have simple cocktail recipes ready for when you are short on ingredients or are in a rush. The Angel Island Martini is a great three ingredient drink that will satisfy any craving you have for a good cocktail. Like most Martini drinks it is Vodka based, but a good bit of its appeal comes from its use of Cream of Coconut.

This Martini a bit sourer than what you may be used to. This is down to the balance and quantity of Lime juice with the rest of the ingredients. Along with the Cream of Coconut this creates a light creamy texture with a slightly pokey sour Lime flavour. It might me an acquired taste for some, but it will have its appeal and isn’t too far from other drinks you may have tried in the past.

If you love your Martinis , then this will be something you will want to try at least once just to see if it’s your kind of thing.
