All Natural Ginger Martini


Ahh, blissful summer. I've had my share of ginger martinis, and just recently started looking for an all natural recipe - the warm sun just makes me crave them!

Among my stipulations for martinis are: no sweet & sour mix, no Rose's lime juice, no weird sugary additions. (Ginger has many health benefits, check it out here.) Just pure and clean ingredients. I found a few, although I made some slight adjustments to my preferences:

All natural ginger martini
2 oz vodka
Juice of ½ lemon or lime
1/8 tsp fresh grated ginger
½ oz organic agave nectar
Splash of extra-dry vermouth (if you like it)

Shake all ingredients in cocktail shaker with crushed ice for 15 seconds. Serve Up in a martini glass. Garnish with lemon or lime twist.

Enjoy - and drink to your health!
