Mama Needs A Candy Cane Martini

By Meg Hodson

Everyone has the holidays on their mind.  The past few days, Twitter has been lighting up with talk of holiday parties, family get togethers, shopping, and festivities.  With kids in the picture, the holidays get even more go-go-go.  So, I got to thinking.  It's time to post one of my famous martini recipes.  It would be fabulous served at a party you are throwing.....or just when mama needs to take the edge off at the end of the night. :)

Candy Cane Martini

2 oz. vanilla vodka
1/2 oz. peppermint schnapps
1 oz. of cranberry juice
Fresh cranberries and crushed candy canes (if desired)

On ice in a cocktail shaker, shake vodka, schnapps, and cranberry juice.  Use lemon juice to make the rim of your martini glass sticky Roll in candy cane crumbles or sugar (if desired).  Float 2-3 fresh cranberries in glass.  Strain cocktail and serve.
