What is Loch Ness Martini?
The Loch Ness Martini becomes a refreshing, modern green cocktail when built with cucumber, gin, citrus, and a touch of sweetness. This version leans into clean botanical flavors, crisp lime brightness, and the subtle smoothness of agave, giving the drink a mysteriously cool profile that feels both elegant and playful. The thin cucumber slices create a natural green tint that looks almost mythical when light hits it just right.
This is the kind of martini that feels spa fresh yet cocktail bar ready. It works beautifully for warm weather sipping, themed gatherings, or anytime you want something bright, herbaceous, and undeniably smooth. It is easy to shake, easy to drink, and honestly, it disappears faster than you’d expect.
Don't forget to see what other drinks you can make with the ingredients you already have in your bar.
