HAD A BAD BREAK UP LATELY, LADIES? HERE'S YOUR MARTINI! The Dirty Rotten B****** Martini


We've all been there, haven't we ladies? That man! He was just no good! But that doesn't mean we aren't suffering and in the need of some consolation.

This is a twist on a Dirty Martini where you add some of the olive brine from your olive jar to your classic martini - only this one uses black olives and vodka as well as gin. This is a delicious but powerful martini for powerful emotions!

Now, only drink two of these, wash that man right out of your hair, get on with your life and get yourself a new, younger, sexier man!

Yes. And use pitted olives, because Dirty Rotten B******* are the pits and who needs more?

Serve this up with any of my Tiny Food Diva appetizers that are shaped into balls - it'll make you feel great!

The LIPSTICK KISS Martini - A Berry Flavored Martini Sealed With a Kiss!


Get the full sized recipe card for my
LIPSTICK KISS MARTINI HERE

I'm working on a martini recipe commissioned by a company for an event coming up and I bought a bottle of Three Olives Berry Vodka to play around with. Again, Three Olives has created a wonderful vodka - this one has a hint of chocolate overtones that has me experimenting all over the place!

I have a bottle of Blackberry Brandy that's been sitting around for a bit and I have a large bottle of highly concentrated cherry juice that is filled with antioxidants that I use to help my joint pain. Plus I have a huge bag of dried cherries that I will munch on occasionally. This is what inspired this particular martini recipe!

The POMEGRANATE MARTINI - Antioxidants and Great Taste!


The Pomegranate Martini has become really popular after being featured on The Oprah Show and it's one of my favorites because I love the pomegranate seeds.

It can be hard to get this particular martini in a bar because it really requires real pomegranate juice - substituting pomegranate liquors or flavoring does not give you that tartness that the juice will! It's also the juice that provides the antioxidants!

The Pomegranate Martini gives you a deep, sexy red colored martini that is a feast for the eyes as well as the palate and brings a rich color to your cocktail party theme as well.

Please Drink Responsibly.
