Equipment
- Measuring Cups and Spoons
- Food Processor
- Fine Strainer
- Cocktail Shaker
- Shot Glass
Ingredients
STRAWBERRY PUREE:
- 1 cup strawberries fresh, tops removed and chopped
- 3 tablespoon granulated sugar
MARTINIS:
- ice
- 8 oz whipped cream vodka divided
- 4 oz Baileys Irish Cream divided
- strawberry puree divided
- ½ to 1 teaspoon grenadine optional
Instructions
- Make your puree by adding strawberries and sugar to a food processor.
- Using a fine strainer, remove the seeds (the amount you are left with can change based on seeds and juiciness of berries- I had a ½ cup).
- Depending on the size of your cocktail shaker you may want to work in batches. Fill cocktail shaker about halfway with ice, then add half of the vodka, Baileys, and strawberry puree and sake until chilled (you can taste and add ½ teaspoon grenadine or simple syrup if you want more sweetness).
- Strain into 2 martini glasses then repeat for the second batch.
Notes
- Shaken/Stirred: A good shake helps fully blend the cream liqueur and fruit for the best texture.
- Glass: A chilled martini glass keeps the drink cold longer and enhances the experience. We love making the drinks look extra fancy and serve it in a coupe glass.
- Garnishes: Slice a fresh strawberry in half or leave whole and place on your rim.
- Taste Before Serving: Strawberries vary in sweetness, so taste and adjust with grenadine or simple syrup if needed.
- Use Fresh Berries: Fresh strawberries give the brightest flavor and best color.
- Strain the Purée: Removing the strawberry seeds gives the martini a smoother, more polished texture; strain twice if needed.
