Directions
Firstly, chill your cocktail glasses. This will ensure your cocktail remains cold for a longer period, enhancing the refreshing sensation when sipped.
In a cocktail shaker, add in your Midori, vodka, and fresh lime juice. Professional tip: Always opt for fresh lime juice instead of bottled ones. The natural acidity and zesty flavor of freshly squeezed lime juice will drastically enhance the cocktail's flavor.
Fill your cocktail shaker with ice. The more ice you put into the shaker, the colder your drink will be. Make sure you seal the shaker tightly to avoid spills.
Give the shaker a good shake for about 15-20 seconds. It might be tempting to shake it more, but cocktails should not be over shaken as it could dilute the taste.
Strain your mixture into the chilled glasses.
Top up the glass with lemon-lime soda. This adds a bubbly texture to the drink, providing a pleasurable drinking experience.
Lastly, garnish with a slice of lemon or lime. Not only will this give a delightful visual appeal to the drink, but the citrus smell will also increase the flavor profile of the cocktail.
