Time delay in martini land

Wow - it's been a heck of a couple of weeks. We are in the process of moving martiniart.com to a new hosting platform and we've been consumed with all of the crazy work associated with that.

We are hoping to launch martiniart.com on our new platform in a couple of weeks! There will be some great new features for our loyal shoppers and visitors - many features that everyone has been asking for. We'll be offering product reviews, wish lists, gift registry and a ton more.

Im working on a new summery martini recipe - hope to have it posted in a couple of days.

Finally, thanks to our new friend Eric, we are going to be up and running with Dirty Sue olive juice. We should have it available for sale from our home page. Dirty Sue is amazing stuff. If you love dirty martinis, you cannot live without this fine product. More to come.

Cheers

Enjoy a summer cake martini

What a week at Martiniart! We've got a ton of new martini glasses and some other fun goodies.

We cooked up this fun and flavorful martini recipe. If you like cheesecake & chocolate, you'll love this cocktail.

3 ounces of Vanilla infused rum (there are many to choose from)
1.5 ounces of fresh pineapple juice
1.5 ounces of Pom pomegranate juice
1 ounce of Godiva chocolate liquor

Shake it all up in a cocktail shaker 3/4 full of cracked ice. Shake like mad! Strain your martini into 2 frozen martini glasses and enjoy.

Cheers

Happy Saturday - shake up a unique martini

It's been a Saturday full of chores at the martiniart warehouse - exciting stuff like mowing the lawn and cleaning up my own office. I snuck away from the action and disapeared into the martini lab for a few quiet moments of martini mixing bliss. Sometimes inspiration hits quickly.

Ultra-Cream Martini

3 ounces of Absolut Citron vodka
1 ounce of white creme de cacao
1 ounce of white creme de menthe
3 tablespoons of heavy cream
1 tablespoon of shaved milk chocolate

Add your vodka, creme de cacao and creme de menthe to a shaker 3/4 full of cracked ice and shake like mad. Strain your martini into 2 freezing martini glasses and drizzle 1/2 of the heavy cream to each glass. Sprinkle choclate shavings over each martini. Sip and enjoy!

Cheers

Way too long for a post about martinis...

Wow...I've been traveling like mad on a mission to find a particular martini glass. Ok, actually, its only been 4 days, but this is maddening.

I cant actually "tell you" what I was looking for, or the gig would be up...but I could sure use some tips on finding what Im looking for. But, uh, if I tell you...

Oh forget it. Shake up some Absolut Peppar and a splash of olive juice and sip until you are crosseyed.

I'll be back with a more meaningful post tomorrow. Hey, could you tell me where to find a...oh, never mind.

Cheers.
