Frosty Raspberry Martini
INGREDIENTS
  • 2 oz raspberry vodka
  • 1 oz white crème de cacao
  • 1 oz heavy creme
  • Garnish:  a handful of fresh raspberries
  • Ice cubes

INSTRUCTIONS
  1. Chill the Martini Glass: Start by placing your martini glass in the freezer for a few minutes. A chilled glass will keep your cocktail cool and enhance the flavors.
  2. Mix the Ingredients: In a shaker, combine the raspberry vodka, white crème de cacao, and heavy cream with a handful of ice cubes.
  3. Shake Well: Seal your shaker and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds. This not only chills the cocktail but also ensures that the cream is well incorporated, giving the drink a silky texture.
  4. Strain and Serve: Strain the mixture into the chilled martini glass, ensuring a smooth pour.
  5. Garnish: Add fresh raspberries to the drink, either by skewering them on a cocktail pick or floating them on the surface of the cocktail.

NOTES
The martini, one of the most iconic and classic cocktails, has a long  and somewhat disputed history, with various claims to its origins dating  back to the late 19th century. Traditionally made with gin and  vermouth, the martini has evolved over time, giving rise to countless  variations. The Frosty Raspberry Martini is a modern take on this  classic, incorporating the sweet and tart flavors of raspberries,  coupled with the luxurious texture of cream, to create a cocktail that's  both indulgent and refreshing.

The Frosty Raspberry Martini is best served in a classic martini glass  to highlight its elegance and color. The presentation is key, so  garnishing with fresh raspberries or even a small sprig of mint can add a  touch of sophistication. This cocktail is perfect for winter  celebrations, intimate gatherings, or as a dessert drink. Its creamy  texture and berry flavor make it a hit at holiday parties or as a  special treat on a cozy night in.
