Martinis with a little extra

The simple instructions made famous by 007 no longer hold up at typical American bars. Now, instead of simply deciding between shaken or stirred martinis, you have the option to change the alcohol, mixer and even garnish of the drink. A prime example of this notion, are the Lolito Martini Glasses. These hand-painted martini glasses feature martini-inspired designs, accompanied by the actual recipe on the bottom of the glass. They’re great. Here’s a few of my favorites.

Lipstick Martini

2 parts Vodka

1 and a half parts Rasberry Liquor

1 part Creme de Cacoa

1 part Creme

Red Panty Martini

1 and a half parts Vodka

One half parts Black Rasberry liquor

one half part rasberry puree

dash of heavy cream

top with whipped cream and a cherry
