Mexican Martinis Reviews

• Terrific I made this exactly as written with one exception - used Stevia (fake sugar) in place of sugar. Its hard to tell how much juice a lime will provide so these will taste a tad bit limey-differently each time. ENJOY

• This one is worth all the effort, I used 4 key limes and 2 tsp. of Splenda sweetner, all that I need now is some beach sand to sink my toes into Thanks for the great recipe

• These did not turn out how we had hoped...and they were WAY too strong

• Great I used limeade instead of sweetened lime juice.
