FAQ's
Why isn't my martini cold?
That's an easy question to answer. It's not cold because you didn't shake it long enough.
Top Tip
Chill the martini glass in the freezer beforehand.
- Use plenty of ice in the co*cktail shaker to chill the liquid ingredients quickly.
- Shake the co*cktail vigorously. They are best when they are super cold!
- No co*cktail shaker? Use a screwtop mason jar. Works great!
There's some great co*cktails on the blog. Here are a few of my very favorites!
- Whiskey Old Fashioned Sour - a classic co*cktail garnished with pickled mushrooms, green beans or brussels sprouts, of course!
- The Golden Cadillac Drink is the perfect celebratory co*cktail for special occasions, cheers!
- The Last Word... (no I'm not making a point, I'm talking about a co*cktail, lol). This gin based drink packs a punch!
- An Ocean Breeze co*cktail is best for poolside get-togethers!
