Monday can be a great day of the week if Martini Monday is the banner and here at Foodies Unite, we are watching the clock for the 5pm Martini Monday Bell!
Thinking about some of our favorite martinis, we opted for light and refreshing with all of the triple digits occurring across the country – The Lemon Drop Martini!
Lemon Drop Martinis pack a punch and so can the heat so always consume intelligently … we do!
