Good but way too strong
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

I love love love Ina Garten and all of her recipes but this recipe calls for way too much vodka. The sugar didn't dissolve... very well ( there were still a lot of grains at the bottom of the glass). I added more fresh lemon juice and some cut up watermelon to dilute the vodka which turned out to be delicious. Read more

Very solid cocktail, friends loved it. Lemons fresh off the Meyer Lemon tree in our yard! Very easy & very good!

Awesome....but keeping with the Ina's current theme of adding a twist....
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Here is is a twist on an old favorite! Using grape or cherry flavored vodka is a definate plus to this great recipe! Also... using crushed ice will help the overall enjoyment with bits of ice crystals keeping the martini cold while in the glass. Read more

It was way too strong for me and my guests! Taste is good, but too much Vodka, I think.

This has become my signature drink. Whenever I have my girlfriends over, they always request this. I make it by the... pitcherful and squeezing the fresh lemons is well worth the effort.Read more

Ina hits the nail on the head everytime. Her recipes are wonderful. She changes things up but always serves a very classy... dish. She is one of my top chefs on FN. These drinks were refreshing, even on New Years Eve!Read more
