Pure No Limo tastes fabulous but you can transmute it, with little fantasy and creativity, to delicate cocktails or long drinks.
Use these recipes as an inspiration and mix your own cocktails without much pretentiousness but with all the more taste for drinks of best quality.
In order to ease the realisation of these drinks, you'll find all the names of alcoholic products we've used. There is no kind of economical relation between those companies and No Limo, but we think they harmonize with No Limo in an excellent way. What's more important, the mentioning of these products is meant to provide an orientation or let your creativity run free, just the way you like. No matter haw you decide, you will be delighted by the results.
