Lemon Cucumber Martini (Featuring Smirnoff Sorbet Light)

I think of this as a martini for the non-martini drinkers--it's crisp, light, and not overwhelmingly vodka-y (if you know what I mean).

Made with Smirnoff Sorbet Light Lemon vodka, it's got lovely natural lemon flavor and just a touch of sweetness.

Hosting a party? Get yourself a great martini pitcher like this one, and mix up a big batch all at once!
