Tips

- Use Fresh Ingredients: Always opt for fresh lime juice instead of bottled for a brighter, more vibrant flavor in your drink.
- Shake it Up: Ensure you shake the cocktail shaker vigorously for at least 15-20 seconds. This not only mixes the ingredients well but also helps chill the drink perfectly.
- Strain for Smoothness: Use a fine-mesh strainer when pouring your mocktail into the glass. This step guarantees a smooth and clear drink, free from any pulp or ice shards.
- Garnish Creatively: Elevate your presentation by garnishing with fresh blackberries. You can also run a blackberry around the rim of the glass for an extra touch of elegance and flavor.
- Serve Immediately: For the best taste and experience, serve your Black Widow Martini Mocktail right away while it's still cold and refreshing.
