Candy Cane Martinis - a refreshing way to spread holiday cheer!


Here's a fun and refreshing way to celebrate the holidays! The Candy Cane Martini is not only delicious but features a minty, breath freshening kick! We are offering these at our holiday parties this year. Yum!

3 parts vodka
1 part peppermint schnapps
splash of lemon/lime soda
ice
grenadine
crushed mint candies or miniature candy canes


Put ice in the martini glass to chill and then empty.
Then, dip the rim of glass in grenadine and then a saucer of crushed candies.
Meanwhile, mix vodka and peppermint schnapps with ice and shake.
Pour into martini glass.
Top with lemon lime soda.
Add a drop of grenadine - note that this will sink to the bottom for a layered look.
Garnish with a small candy cane if desired.
Enjoy with friends!
