So tonight we knew we might have plans with Sheila, we just didn’t know what. After we spoke we decided on Movie Night. Death Becomes Her, a classic we have all seen. Good times, right? Well Sheila showed up with the makings of a Fountain Of Youth Martini. Surprise! Turns out she was able to swipe the menu last night from Martinis, and it listed all the needed ingredients. Just not the amounts… So we began the evening with a taste test of sorts.. till we got it right. Only then did we put on the movie. Heh. Is that the perfect cocktail for that movie or what?? Good times..

A lot of people are looking for the eggnog martini recipe from last year. I figured I’d make it easier to find. This was a hit at the 2 holiday events we were able to attend last year… give it a go! And try it with vanilla vodka. Mmmm…

May I make a drink suggestion? I mean… I had been looking for something like this. My man is a fan of the martini. Well, the fancy girl kinds anyway. And for myself, the standard eggnog and brandy gig is so heavy. So I did a bit of Google magic and came up with the Eggnog Martini. I even like it! It’s dreamy! Like a cloud of eggnog with yummy goodness.. Mmm. Try it!

Eggnog Martini
Ingredients:
1 Oz Eggnog
1 Oz Ameretto
1 Oz Vodka
