Citrus Razztini: A Raspberry Martini
Raspberries and orange were meant to be together. Add vodka and you have a raspberry martini that's the cocktail version of Three's Company!
I have been looking forward to Friday all week! I recently hosted some friends for dinner and they were gracious enough to let me experiment on them with recipes (should I insert a mad scientist cackle? Maybe…), including a new cocktail. It was such a hit, I knew it had to be today’s feature cocktail!!! It’s a delicious raspberry martini infused with orange flavors that is so bright and fresh it simply feels like springtime in a glass!
