Shaken or Stirred? Raise a Glass for ‘National Martini Day’

We all know once you get off work the first thing on your mind is home and you’re in luck because today is National Martini Day. Instead of paying for a pricey night out, check out these DIY Martini cocktails with a twist to keep you in this holiday’s spirit! After all, martinis are the “elixir of quietude” according to American writer E.B. White.

Just as Brian Hyland says, it’s time to put on that “itsy bitsy teeny weeny yellow polka dot bikini” and enjoy a Bikini Martini.  With summer here, why not mix a little coconut rum, vodka, pineapple juice, and grenadine. It’s very similar to another favorite, the Pineapple Upside-Down Martini. For a more traditional fruity cocktail turned martini, the Cosmo-Style Pomegranate Martini is the perfect mix of sweet and sour. Mix these cocktails up you have the perfect late afternoon drink that’ll leave you feeling like you’re on that getaway vacation.

If you prefer richer flavors to the more fruity, we also have drinks that you just can’t resist. The Earl Grey Martini and Chai Martini are probably the best kept martini secrets out there, spicing up your evening but leaving you calm and cool. The Chocolate Martini, because chocolate goes well with everything, is the answer to all your day’s questions. If you thought chocolate always puts you in a good mood, you have yet to try this mix that is truly an “elixir.”

Although a cool-looking shape, the question still stands-Why are these strong drinks in such spill-able glasses?!
