ST. PATRICK'S DAY MARTINIS - Irish Kiss Martini


The IRISH KISS MARTINI

You might think you're not a whiskey drinker but the Irish Kiss Martini might just change your mind.  Combined with a chocolate and a mint liqueur whiskey gets a nice little St. Patrick's Day makeover and could make you a whiskey lover.  Green and white sprinkles (jimmies) on the rim lend a festive lucky rim and add a bit of sweetness as you sip.

Ménage à Trois Martini


The
Ménage à Trois Martini
(Ménage à Trois: French for Eternal Triangle)

Looking for a little excitement in your life?  Has happy hour turned dull and boring? Maybe it's time to "mix it up" by adding a little something extra to your cocktail time, The Ménage à Trois Martini.

I know what you're thinking, now get your mind out of the gutter, I'm talking about shaking up your bar life with a triple threat vodka gimlet.  This cocktail has taken a ride on the wild side with two flavored vodkas added to the traditional mix.  Using Ruby Red Grapefruit Vodka, Lime Vodka and Mandarin Orange Vodka in place of plain vodka, you add some zing and zip to this classic cocktail.

This is not a drink for the timid but if you're in need of a serious sip of vodka with a little excitement thrown in, give it a try. Just don't expect to walk a straight line afterwards.

IT'S MARDI GRAS!
Celebrate Fat Tuesday with the

Inspired by the famous Hurricane cocktail of Pat O'Brien fame, my Mardi Gras Martini is a mini-me version of this classic Carnival cocktail.  Chock full of rum and masked as a martini complete with a rainbow sugar rim, you can dress it up even more by twirling some Mardi Gras beads around the stem.

Never been to Mardi Gras? Wondering what all the fuss is about?  Read about Mardi Gras on the Mardi Gras Martini Recipe Page and find out exactly why it's called Fat Tuesday.

THE WHITE CHOCOLATE CHEESECAKE MARTINI


This is a seriously sweet cocktail, but then white chocolate is a seriously sweet candy. I admit to preferring my Chocolate Cheesecake Martini, but I have a friend who loves white chocolate best so I developed this cocktail specifically for her.

To each his own, especially at happy hour, I'm not one to judge!

For myself, I add a few drops of some chocolate or coffee bitters and a little extra salt to counteract the sweetness. It's your choice on those small modifications.

Ingredients and Instructions for the White Chocolate Cheesecake Martini
