The classic Martini is one of the drinks thatevery bartender

should know. There are many ways to make a Martini: gin

orvodka,little or no vermouth, stirred or shaken and an olive or

lemon twist garnish. One drink, so many options.

Many other drinks are referred to as aMartini. Although this

recipe is the original, we must go along with society in some

respects and here are more of thoseMartinirecipes.

Vodca Redbull

Love it or hate it, the Vodka Red Bull is one of the

mostpopular drinks of the 21st Century so far. It owes its fame

to the energy drink craze and the popularity of Red Bull. I'm not

fond of it myself simply because I don't like to mix alcohol and

overly caffeinated drinks - a theory that has spurred quite a

debate lately about thehealth effects of such a mix. If you do

like Vodka Red Bulls or any similar drinks, take it easy because

the caffeine can mask how drunk you may be in reality and lead

to some larger issues than ahangover.


Ingredients:

2 oz vodka Red Bull energy drinkPreparation:

1. Pour thevodka into ahighball

glass filled with ice.

2. Fill with Red Bull.Vodca Tonic

With the splash of lime, the Vodka Tonic is an easy-to-make,

refreshing sipper for really hot days. Where theGin &Tonic relies on the flavor of gin to make the drink, this vodka

version is very clean and almost flavorless except for the lime.

This is where a good vodka comes into play: a value vodka will

add nothing to the drink and it's impurities will shine through.

Also, try this out with any of your favoriteflavored vodkas.



Yield: 1 Cocktail


Garnish: lime wedge

2 ozvodka 2 oztonic water Lime wedge for garnish

Preparation:

1. Build ingredients in an ice-filledhighball glass.

2. Add the lime garnish.Accomplice

Combine a fineChampagne and a greatvodka (likeStoli) with

strawberries and you have a fantastic drink called the

Accomplice. This is a great cocktail for elite celebrations and,

especially, New Year's Eve parties. I like that it's served in a

cocktail glass as opposed to a Champagne flute because it

allows the bubbly to swell in the wider glass. Not to mention it's

much easier to rim a cocktail glass with sugar, which is a

necessary finishing touch for this and works best with abrut orextra brut for that sweet-dry combination that is stunning.


Garnish: strawberry

Ingredients:

1 oz simple syrup 2 oz Stolichnaya vodka 1/2 oz fresh lemon juice Champagne 3 strawberries superfine sugar for rimmingPreparation:

1. Muddle three strawberries andsimple syrup in a cocktail

shaker.

2. Add thevodka and lemon juice.3. Shake well.4. Strain into asugar-rimmedmartini glass.

5. Top with Champagne.Alibi

The Alibi is a simpleginger-flavored drink that features a

fantastic vodka, Stolichnaya. Personally I prefer to use theStoli

Elitbecause it's even smoother than the other, but

anyvodka should do as long as it's a nice, clean one - those

work best with the pure ginger, lime and soda of the drink. The

ginger syrup is easy to make and great for keeping in the fridge

on a regular basis. Another option is to get a little "wild" and

use avanilla-ginger simple syrup.Both are great

The Amore Frizzante is a spectacularsparkling wine

cocktail with a rich array of fruity flavors. The star of the show

is the brandy-basedGranGala orange liqueur and when that is

paired with a bit of peach nectar andProsecco the result is

stunning and a great option for any celebration likeNew Year's

Eve.The recipe calls for clear vodka, but I've found that Van

Gogh's mango vodka is a nice touch here, as would most

anyfruit-infused vodka.

Glass type: champagne flute

Garnish: peach/raspberry

Ingredients:

1 oz Van Gogh Vodka 1/2 oz GranGala Triple Orange

Liqueur

1/2 ozpeach nectar

Prosecco, such as Brunetto sliced peaches and raspberries for

garnish

Preparation:

1. Pour thevodka,GranGala and peach nectar into acocktailshaker filled with ice.

2. Shake well.3. Strain into aChampagne flute.

4. Top with Prosecco.5. Garnish with a slice of peach and two raspberries.

Apple Cider Martini

Here is another apple-flavored 'martini' and it's an interesting

one. This Apple Cider Martini is designed more for those with

drier tastes than many of the other options.

The drink uses Ultimat Vodka, which is ultra smooth and clean,

and makes a nice base for the apple and ginger combination.

For the cider, I recommend using the freshest cider available

Apple pie Martini

There are many"Appletini" recipes and most are great

refreshers for hot summer days or as a fix for your sweet tooth.

However, very few have a taste that is satisfying oncold winter

nights, but this Apple Pie Martini just happens to be one of

them. This one combines sweet vanilla with apple cider and

cinnamon for an overwhelming inner warming effect that

reminds you of Grandma's homemade apple pies and the

holidays.

It features Navan, a premium vanilla liqueur, which is perfect as

a base for thisflavored martini. You can also warm the apple

going with a flavored vodka you can add your favorite

"topping." Strawberry, pineapple,coconut, or even more

chocolate or banana are all good options and there are many

others that you could play with.

The other choice you have is the garnish. You could go low-key

and stick with the customary banana slice, or a lone strawberry,

or pineapple slice, maybe adding a cherry. There's the

strawberry and chocolate syrups drizzled in the bottom of the

glass, and the decadent chocolate dipped strawberry or banana.

This drink is completely customizable.

the Mango Tree in London and features a great vodka in Cape

Cherub's Cup

The Cherub's Cup is truly a cocktail of angelic proportion andcan very easily become a new favorite for just about anyone.

This drink is both sweet and dry, with a tinge of flavors that are

both intriguing and refreshing and it is ideal for anyromantic

celebration.

The use of St. Germain is a must in the drink, and while theoptions for the other spirit are nice to plant the seed of

customization, I would have to suggest going with Hendrick's

Gin. The cucumber and rose of this particular gin is oh-so

delightful with the elderflower and strawberry and an ideal

match for thedry sparkling wine.

shots that require an extra step or a traditionalprocedureother

than simply tipping the glass and downing it. The traditional

way to shoot a Chocolate Cake is to follow up the shot by

sucking on a sugar-coated lemon. It's like the frosting on the

If you like aWhite Russian you may really like a Colorado

Bulldog. The only difference being that in this recipe you top

with equal amount of cream and cola instead of cream alone. It

really adds a nice touch that mixes up a routine of Russians.

1. Pour the vodka and coffee liqueur in anold-fashionedglass filled with ice.

Coriandrum

The herbal flavors of coriander shine in this cocktail whichfeatures Square One Organic Vodka. The Coriandrum uses a

simple coriander-flavored nectar by infusing agave nectar with

coriander seeds (recipe below). Whilesimple syrup could be

used in place of the nectar, it tends to produce a cocktail that is

almost too sweet and contradicts the

spice of the coriander.

recipe says 'churn' rather than stir, and why you may also want

to serve this with a straw.

This recipe does suggest using what is technically

named(Belvedere) Red Vodka. It is the same clear Belvedere

that we are familiar with, it just comes in a special, limited

edition bottle. 2012 is the second year of this seasonal bottle

and the proceeds benefit the Global Fund (a financier that aids

programs to combat HIV/AIDS in Africa). If you see this bright

crimson bottle, pick it up... you get the same great vodka in a

stunning bottle and some people get much needed help.

City, this cocktail is a refreshing drink of that pairs a sencha

green tea syrup with Chartreuse and cucumber.

The recipe for the syrup is below and is very easy to mix up and

I think you will find it useful in other cocktails as well. The

vodka recommended here is Tito's, a vodka produced in Texas.

It is distilled from corn, making it a very interesting addition to

this cocktail that will be ideal anytime and for any occasion.

Dust in Eden

In this cocktail we're combining the flavors of fresh

pomegranate and apple juice (fresh is best of course) to create

one great, unique drink. Dusk in Eden is a great alternative to

the oh-so-popularAppletini, you don't have the full-on, overly

sweet apple (typically contributed by schnapps), instead it's a

rich apple that is offset by fresh pomegranate. The result is onespectacularMartini.

name comes from a 75mm French field gun that was said to

have the same kick as the drink.

At some point in its early history this drink was made with

Cognac in place of the gin and there is some question as to

another twist, if the same drink is made

withvodka for the base spirit, it is a

French 76.
