Liquids
- 2 oz vanilla vodka
- 1 oz amaretto
- 1 oz Irish cream (Baileys)
- 3/4 oz blue curacao
- 1.5 oz simple syrup
Garnish
- 1/4 cup crushed pistachios
Instructions
- Mix the Spirits: In a cocktail shaker, combine the vanilla vodka, amaretto, Irish cream, and blue curacao to create the base of the martini.
- Shake with Ice: Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously for at least 25 seconds to chill the mixture thoroughly.
- Prepare the Glass Rim: Pour the simple syrup onto a plate. Dip the rim of your martini glass into the syrup to coat it evenly, ensuring the crushed pistachios will stick.
- Coat with Pistachios: Spread the crushed pistachios on a separate plate and dip the syrup-coated rim into them, creating a crunchy and flavorful garnish around the glass.
- Strain and Serve: Strain the chilled cocktail mixture from the shaker directly into the prepared martini glass, ready to enjoy.
Notes
- For added sweetness complexity, you can substitute simple syrup with maple syrup.
- Ensure the pistachios are finely crushed to adhere well to the glass rim.
- Shake the cocktail vigorously to blend the creamy Irish cream with the other spirits smoothly.
- Serve immediately to enjoy the optimal chilled and fresh flavors.
- To make it vegan, substitute Irish cream with a non-dairy alternative.
