Lemon Pie Vodka Martini

This is a classic martini with a wee twist….

 

  • 1 part Grey Goose Vodka
  • 1 part Lemoncella
  • 1 part whipping cream vodka
  • 4 drops Dry Vermouth

 

Pour into a shaker filled with ice and shake for 20 seconds. Strain into a well chilled martini glass and garnish with a lemon twist.

Pucker Up Martini

For the not so feint of heart!

  • 6 parts vodka (chilled)
  • 1 part dry vermouth
  • lemon strips
  • olives

You only swirl the vermouth around the chilled martini glass and discard the excess. Pour the chilled vodka into glass and garnish with 2 manzanilla olives and a twist of lemon.

Simple but a classic martini. Now, let me tell you what really happened. I made this for son, Trevor, and didn’t just swirl the vermouth. I left it in and I thought I had killed him.  1 mouth full and he was spitting it out. So…remember, SWIRL and discard.
