The perfect drink to impress the guests

The Honeydew Martini is a stunner of drinks. If you love sipping that emerald green liquid, then this is what you’re looking for. It’s a drink perfect to pair with ham and broccoli quiche, or even with Airfryer Cauliflower Cheese Tater Tots.
Made with vodka, Midori and triple sec, it gives you a smooth taste, a bit sweet but is also a fully loaded drink. See how you can remake this drink here.
