Time to Ring in the New Year!


New Year's Eve is here people and this little cocktail will not let you be nodding off as the New Year approaches!

 Champagne may be the drink of choice for many on New Year's Eve, but save the bubbly for another time and try this unique drink...

A Midnight Martini is a dark, easy to make martini with strong coffee flavor ~ chilling the espresso before making ~ is an important element to the drink.

 Although, the martini is sweet enough on its own, the simple syrup adds a nice little froth to it. 

 It's the perfect cocktail to keep you going into the wee hours!





Midnight Martini Cocktail

 Ingredients:

 2 ounces Grey Goose vodka
1 ounce espresso or strong coffee (cold)
1 ounce Kahlúa
Healthy splash of simple syrup
Orange twist for garnish

 Method:

 Pour ingredients into a cocktail shaker filled with ice.
Shake it hard for 10-15 seconds.
Strain into a martini glass.
Garnish with orange twist.

 ENJOY!

HAVE A GREAT
HAPPY NEW YEAR
AND
BE SAFE!

    Wishing you a Happy, Healthy and Safe New Year Pam! I'm not usually all about the bubbles on New Year's Eve. This drink is more my style. After all, it has Kahlua!

    Thanks for sharing, Pam...

    Yes'm, I wish I had had one of these little jolt-kickers New Year's Eve! I was awakened by the fireworks in our neighborhood at midnight and missed the other festivities. :( Happy 2016, Pam!

The trouble is, you cannot grow just one zucchini. Minutes after you plant a single seed, hundreds of zucchini will barge out of the ground and sprawl around the garden, menacing the other vegetables. At night, you will be able to hear the ground quake as more and more zucchinis erupt.
