Thirsty Thursday - It's Martini Time

One of my favorite cocktails are martinis. Not the James Bond ,"stirred not shaken" kind, but the yummy , fluffy, girly kind.
We are taking a trip to the local orchard this weekend and that got me thinking about apple martinis. I found this great recipe at allrecipes.com.



Ingredients

• 1 (1.5 fluid ounce) jigger best-quality vodka
• 1 (1.5 fluid ounce) jigger apple schnapps
• 1 (1.5 fluid ounce) jigger frozen lemonade
• 1 (1.5 fluid ounce) jigger chilled lemon-lime soda
• 1 lime wedge
• 1 maraschino cherries

Directions

1. Pour the vodka, schnapps, lemonade, and soda into a cocktail shaker over ice. Cover, and shake until the outside of the shaker has frosted. Strain into a chilled martini glass, and garnish with a lime wedge and maraschino cherry to serve.

The next most important thing when having a martini is proper stemware . Enough can NOT be said be said about proper stemware !



Aren't these beautiful? And FUN !

And what are martini's if not fun ???
