"Mar-Tea-Ni

BinkieBaumont

Rude Once Too Often
The Mar”tea”ni is essentially a traditional martini with added cucumber, green tea and lime served in a chilled heatmaster teapot. The teapot presentation not only adds a bit of ironic pomp to this drink but also means that there’s enough to fill a martini glass at least twice (A Chumrade & one, got nearly three full glasses out of our pot!).


Mar“tea”ni:
35ml Hendricks Gin
2 slices of cucumber
60ml of cold green tea
Two lime wedges

Place the gin, cucumber and green tea in a Cocktail Shaker with ice
Sqeeze the lime juice into the shaker Shake together and strain into the teapot

Serve in a Martini glass

The Mar”tean”ni provides a good buzz as one might expect from a martini while the green tea adds a bit of “ah” to it. A more refreshing summer cocktail might be difficult to find in the Swan River colony this Summer

Now that does sound refreshing Binkie.

Will definitely give that a whirl this summer.

Thanks!
