In today’s video we’re mixing up a martini! This is a cocktail most everyone is familiar with, and many are particular when it comes to how their martinis are made. The classic martini is a fairly simple build, but the preferred ratios have changed over the years. If you like vermouth, you may like a “wet” martini - which is what we’re making today. Of course, feel free to adjust the ratios to your liking. The martini is all about finding the balance that works best for you. Enjoy your martinis, everyone - Cheers!

Today’s drink is the Hemingway Daiquiri! Recipes for this drink have evolved since Hemingway’s original Papa Doble (a sugarless daiquiri with a double shot of rum). The result is a crowd-pleasing balance of sweet and tart - who doesn’t love a good daiquiri riff? Hope you enjoy this rendition of a warm weather favorite. Cheers!
