Remember the Chamomile-Pear Infused Vodka that I made last week?  Well, for it’s debut in a cocktail I wanted something that would allow it’s delicate flavor to shine.  What better way to shine than in a martini?  I’m all for a drink that is 100% alcohol – no silly simple syrups or club soda to come between you and your alcohol!

For this martini, I decided that Gallo Sweet Vermouth and my favorite St. Elder Elderflower liqueur would complement the floral fruity vodka.  It did!!

This was so good!!  It was delicate and elegant.  A little too easy sipping – I could have drank 3 or 4 of these and never batted an eye.  That is until, I had to pick myself up off the floor.   On a side note, I love martinis.  I understand that a martini is technically gin or vodka with vermouth.  But in this day and age of cocktail exploration and explosion, creative license is allowed and appreciated.

For this cocktail, I used my infused vodka, a little sweet vermouth and elderflower liqueur.  I garnished it with a pear twist – made oh so easy with my new Channel Knife – Wusthof and rimmed Libbey Cosmopolitan Cocktail/Martini Glass (similar) with sugar.  By the way, I love stemless martini glasses, the last thing I need while drinking a martini is a top heavy glass.

    Our favorite bar makes a cocktail that has chamomile grappa in it. First time I’d ever tasted chamomile outside of sipping tea and hoping it puts me to sleep. Delicious! I bet it’s fantastic with pear. And I looove those glasses, too. Stems are so 2014. Thanks for bringing this to #SaucySaturdays, Pam.
