Expert Tips

This recipe can easily be doubled or tripled to make more than one serving.

Whipped cream-flavored vodka works well with this recipe as well.

If you don’t have a martini shaker, you can certainly just use a pitcher with ice or just use 2 cups of different diameters placed open end to open end to make a mock shaker.

A little lemon juice squeezed over the pear slice will prevent it from browning if you cut it in advance.

I made this with the Whipped Cream vodka and eliminated the spices and it was a big hit!

I love making martinis and I had to try this one. It was sooo good. It was different, but I like different. I love to experiment with martinis and both my husband and i liked it. I have made this one a few more times since.

I do not drink, other people do, but that is their choice RIGHT....so I was wondering if you have any ingredient to replace that vodka??? Thank you so much! :)
