Holiday Martini's

I made this one up for a holiday party a couple of years ago. My peeps luuuved it! And it was easy to make.

Mafia Hairdresser's Holiday Ornaments
1 part Ginger Ale
1 part Cranberry Juice
1 part Apple Pucker (in liqueur section)
2 parts Absolut Vodka
1 Cinnamon Stick
Mix all together and Chill for 1 to 2 hours and serve straight-up in martini glasses.
Then add a few FROZEN GRAPES or/and FROZEN RASPBERRIES or/and FROZEN BLUEBERRIES to each glass to keep chilled and Ornament your drinks.

This one is light and crisp tasting. Cucumbers were last years rage.
Mafia Hairdresser's Winter Snowflake Martini
This is the latest and bestest.
In a Martini shaker add;
1part Absolut Citron
1part White Cranberry (Dominic's or Jewell)
Ice
1 slice of peeled cucumber
AND SHAKE
Pour into a martini glass and add 1 sliced & peeled cucumber to float on the top and you got yourself a winter refresher!
