Recipe FAQs and Notes
Does this really taste like a Key Lime Pie?
Trust me; this tasted EXACTLY like a Key Lime Pie! I took a sip and was instantly transported back to summer at my grandparent’s house, having a slice of pie. It is so yummy!
Can I make this cocktail without condensed milk?
The condensed milk adds sweetness and creaminess to the cocktail, mimicking the flavors of a key lime pie. However, if you prefer a less sweet cocktail, you can leave it out or adjust the amount to your taste.
Can I use a different type of cracker for the rim?
While graham crackers are traditional for a Key Lime Pie Cocktail, you can experiment with other types of crackers or cookies to find your perfect flavor combination. Just make sure they’re finely crushed and stick well to the rim of the glass.
