This is a bright, lemony, creamy cocktail. The lemon punch is strong, but it’s mellowed out a little with the sweetness of the meringue. It truly is the Lemon Meringue Pie in cocktail form.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup/8 fl oz Lemon Curd store bought or 1 batch of this recipe
- 2 fl oz Limencello if you don’t have this, you can replace this with an equal amount of vodka
- 6 fl oz Vodka
- 2 oz freshly squeezed lemon juice optional if you used Limencello
- Ice cubes
- 4 Lemon & Oat Lace Cookies recipe below
- 1 recipe of Swiss Meringue recipe below
- 4 chilled serving glasses
Instructions:
-
Place the Lemon Curd, Limencello, Vodka and Ice Cubes in a shaker and shake to combine.
-
Taste and add more lemon juice if you like the cocktail to be more tart in flavour (I personally prefer this)
-
Shake once more to combine lemon juice.
-
Strain this into 4 chilled serving glasses evenly.
-
Top with Swiss meringue.
-
With a blow torch, just brown the edges of the meringue (Optional)
-
Serve immediately with a lemon & oats lace cookie on the side.
