CALIFORNIA SUNSET
This is the perfect summer evening cocktail; nice and cool, but not too sweet. For those of you who cannot stand dry vermouth, trust me. Neither did I until my husband made a mistake. Please be sitting down when you drink this, eh? Preferably facing west!

Tips:
- Use ripe avocados: Make sure your avocados are ripe and creamy for the smoothest, creamiest dip.
- Adjust the spiciness: If you like your dip spicy, add more jalapeño or cayenne pepper. If you prefer it mild, omit the peppers or use less.
- Use fresh lime juice: Fresh lime juice adds a bright, citrusy flavor to the dip. If you don't have fresh lime juice, you can use bottled lime juice, but the flavor won't be as good.
- Serve with your favorite dippers: Serve the California Sunset Dip with tortilla chips, vegetable crudités, or crackers. You can also use it as a spread on sandwiches or wraps.
