Mintini

Submitted by Mamas Kitchen Hope

"MMMM! A minty martini! How yummy! This looks so pretty in a glass when you use white creme de menthe or clear peppermint schnapps and the clear vodka! Oh and this will even make your breath really nice for kissing! Perfect for New Years Eve! After trying this I found that I would like the mint a little more pronounced. Let the martini rest so the mint can release all it's wonderful goodness! Do try to wait the one minute requested if you can! Now I think this is perfect! IMHO anyway! Makes two generous martini's!"

I waited almost 2 minutes and it's great. The Mintini gets cold. And the taste was yummy. Thanks Hope. Made for Beverage tag.
