Martini Break!

Martini Break - The Vanilla Bean Martini

First and foremost, I must apologize for my failure to post last week’s martini recipe. How negligent of me! Sometimes things happen in life that requires you to rearrange and readjust your plans. The key is to make adjustments while preserving your fabulousness. Additionally, when your change of plans affect others, be sure to make it up to them.  Here is my attempt to make it up to you Divas! In the spirit of making amends, I have a double dose of recipes for you this week. Forgive me?

Recipe number one is an interesting one: The Vanilla Bean Martini. This recipe is meant to be served cold. Feel free to substitute the caramel for chocolate. Enjoy!

Ingredients

4 oz of Vanilla Flavored Vodka

2 oz of Vanilla Liqueur

Vanilla Beans (Chilled)

Caramel Drizzle (for garnish)

Ice

Recipe

- Drizzle caramel along the insides of a martini glass and chill for at least 1 hour.

- In a shaker, combine ice, vodka and vanilla liqueur. Shake!

- Drop a few chilled vanilla beans in the bottom of the chilled martini glass.

Very easy, and very tasty! Sit back and enjoy. Stay tuned for recipe number two!
