Party thrower JoAnn Harrison's recipe for Key Lime Pie MartinisI love dessert cocktails... you get the sweet and the cocktail in a glass and don't have to double up on the calories! This holiday season, offer your guests a selection of dessert cocktails. A dessert drink bar is easy to set up. Provide lots of glasses, cocktail shakers, liqueurs and mix-ins and a recipe for 4-5 different dessert drinks so guests can make their own. This is a sure-fire hit!! This recipe for Key Lime Pie Martini was provided by our sweet friend JoAnn Harrison. Thank you JoAnn! These are my new favorite!
