Thread: Martini recipes

i am really starting to like martinis here lately.. anyone have any good recipes that would like to share?? thanks Angie

My fave is a good old dirty martini... vodka poured into a shaker w/ ice and green olive juice added. Shake it up good and serve w/ extra olives!

It's all about the glass... I LOVE martini glasses!

Another really good one is a lemon meringue martini

Add equal parts of:

vanilla vodka
limoncello
42 liquor (I think it's 42... might be 43)
splash of pineapple juice

Shake and serve. Those are addictive!!

Bourbon Manhattan

Equal parts bourbon & red vermouth with a splash of bitters. I usually put in 8 or 9 maraschino cherries and a bit of juice over ice.

Of course when I have one of these I make a MARTOOOONI which means it is big, big, big.

If I'm having company I'll make a pitcher of them and add ice & cherries as needed

.............holy Moses, if I had Howard Hudson's martini recipe (from Corpus Christi, Tx) I-d be reeeeeealy rich! I think he'll take that with him! He's a great man, I miss him! Laura

Chocolate martini

1 1/2 shots chocolate liquor (godiva is good)
1 1/2 shot creme de coco
1/2 shot vodka
2 1/2 shot half and half

Mix in shaker over ice, serve in glass rimmed with coco.
