RED WINE MARTINI
INGREDIENTS:
2 ounce Apothic Red Blend
1 ounce gin
1/2 ounce simple syrup
1/2 ounce fresh lemon juice
Ice
Chilled cocktail glass
Fresh blackberries (for garnish)
DIRECTIONS:
1. Prepare your glass. If possible, chill a cocktail glass by placing it in the freezer for a few minutes or by filling it with ice water while you prepare the drink.
2. Prepare your cocktail shaker. If you don't have a cocktail shaker, you can use a jar with a tight-fitting lid.
3. Carefully measure and add ingredients to the shaker.
4. Add ice. Fill the shaker with ice cubes to help chill and mix the ingredients.
5. Shake well. Secure the lid on the shaker and shake it vigorously for about 15 seconds.
6. Strain the mixture. Remove the ice from your glass (if you used ice water) and use a strainer (or the lid of your shaker if it has built-in holes) to pour the drink into the chilled glass, leaving the ice behind in the shaker.
7. Garnish. Slice a quarter of the way into a fresh blackberry and add to the edge of the glass for a decorative touch.
