Fancy Martini Recipes
Ever since the martini made headlines, bartenders, and blend specialists have been churning out variants that cater to various taste buds. Improvisation is the key when it comes to trying out martini recipes. Sometimes a blunder or an ingredient that is added can add a whole new dimension to a martini. Fancy martini recipes work well when you experiment with ingredients. Modern variants of martini recipes depend on your personal taste. There are two types of martini variants, sweet, and pungent. While most women prefer sweet martinis, most men prefer pungency in their drinks.
Ginger Martini
Among the fancy martini recipes that I've tried, one recipe that remains etched in my mind is the ginger martini. The lingering taste that remains in your mouth after having this martini is something you'll never forget. Here's how it's made.
- Take a significant amount of crushed ice in a mixing glass or shaker.
- Add 2 shots of vodka
- Sprinkle a significant amount of dry Vermouth
- Jerk the mixing glass once
- Add 2 tbsp of ginger juice
- 1/ 2 teaspoon of lemon juice
- Shake the mixing glass rigorously
- Pour the drink in a chilled martini glass
- Garnish it with lemon rind, its ready to be served
If you want to reduce the flavor of ginger it is recommended you use 1 tbsp of ginger juice. The thrill of having this cocktail is getting a taste of the ingredients that are used in making it. To enjoy the subtleties of this drink, sip it slowly. Fancy martini recipes can be made easily at home. One thing you've got to make sure is the measure of ingredients you use. Too much, or too little can ruin the taste.
