Ever had a Purple Nurple? No, I'm not talking about the martini here, I'm talking about those nasty little tweaks of a tender part of your body - usually inflicted by an older brother or sister or the school bully. . . . Read More.
I got a beautiful set of martini glasses for my birthday that were hand blown with a pink flamingo on the stem. They were a gift from my oldest (I love doing that to her) friend, CindyRae, and so beautiful I was afraid to use them. I decided to create a special martini for them so I would have a reason to use them.
I wanted something tropical and that reminded me of the beautiful flamingos you see in Florida and decided on something like a Pina Colada.
This is a wonderful martini that has the delicate essence of pear just wafting up your nose as your drink. It is a delicious fruity martini that isn't too sweet.
I like to serve this martini with my Blue Cheese Stuffed Mushrooms over at my Appetizer Page! It's a great combination and an impressive gourmet nosh for your guests!
