I’ll be doing mixology demonstrations at the International Wine, Spirits and Beer Event during the 2013 NRA Show in Chicago in May, and if there’s one thing I always tell people, and I mean always, it’s to squeeze your lime juice fresh just before mixing your cocktails! Fresh lime juice is the most fragile of all the citrus juices; it will begin to oxidize 20 minutes after you squeeze it. I always recommend the use of a hand lime squeezer and squeezing your limes a la minute.
