Tips and Tricks

  1. Chill Your Glass: A chilled martini glass enhances the flavors and keeps your drink cool longer.

Variations

  2. Hazelnut Heaven: Switch Irish cream liqueur with hazelnut liqueur for a twist.
  3. Apple-tini Snickers: Add a splash of apple cider and lemon juice for a fall-inspired variation.
