The Last PINK MARTINI - The Pink Squirrel!



Today's is the last Pink Martini for Think Pink and it's a classic - The Pink Squirrel Martini. Based on the classic Pink Squirrel Cocktail. The Creme de Noyaux is an almond flavored liqueur made from apricot pits very much like Amaretto so if you have a hard time finding the Noyaux you can try Amaretto but it's not the same pink color!!

Thanks for joining me for my Think Pink for the Cure campaign - but don't stop thinking or drinking pink - let's keep up the push to find a cure for breast cancer!

ANOTHER PINK DIVA MARTINI for Think Pink!

 
The Pink Diva Martini is really a pink version of a lemon drop martini - with the citrus vodka and the fresh lemon juice it's only pink because of the splash of grenadine.

There are so many recipe versions for Lemon Drop Martinis out there anyone can find a tart/sweet ratio to suit them! I have three posted myself so far: The Classic Lemon Drop Martini - The Cherry Lemon Drop Martini - The Pomegranate Lemon Drop Martini

PINK SLING-A-TINI - The Singapore Sling Goes Diva for Think Pink!



The Pink Sling-a-Tini is my take on the Singapore Sling that was created by Ngiam Tong Boon at the Long Bar of the Raffles Hotel in Singapore. Originally called the Straits Sling or possibly derived from it this was a popular drink during the 1920s and then again in the 1950s.

I believe the original recipe used Kirsch instead of the Cherry Heering and you can try this recipe both ways - I prefer the Cherry Heering myself.

This is a very sweet "girly" drink but don't be taken in by it's pink color and the sweetness - this one packs a serious punch!

MARTINI FOR HIGH MAINTENANCE DIVAS - Rich, Delish & Pink!


This one if for all you "Rch Btches" out there - it's very high maintenance diva martini because the garnish is edible gold or silver! My dear divas, not only can you drip in gold on your pampered body but you can now decorate your insides with it too, lol.
