My ex-wife's Martini:
A wedge of orange with the rind crushed in the bottom of a glass. "Frozen" vodka (Stolis or equiv) poured over crushed ice and shaken. Fill glass with crushed ice and pour vodka into glass.
She liked to call it a "weak" screwdriver.
Me? Bombay Blue Sapphire shaken with crushed ice in a chilled glass. No olive, just a twist of lemon. I have a spray bottle of Vermouth if one wants some.
Tastes change over time. I used to do shots of Jose Cuervo (white) with lime...These days, it's Cazadores Reposado.
My Perfect Margarita:
Fresh squeezed lime juice, with 1 part fresh orange juice to 4 parts lime juice.
Put crushed ice in a shaker
Mix in
2 shots cazadores
1 shot lime juice
1 shot Cointreau
Shake until the shaker frosts
Strain into a chilled, salted, martini glass and garnish with a lime wedge
Killer Margaritas - So smooth the girls like them, but deadly!
