Drinks on Me: Cilantro Martini's (Alcoholic)


Cilantro Martini's

3 oz. vodka
1 oz. gin
1/2 oz. simple syrup
Juice of 1 lime
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1 1/2 tbsp. freshly grated ginger
1/4 cup freshly chopped cilantro
Ice

In a cocktail shaker add the ice, cilantro, ginger, lemon juice, lime juice and syrup and muddle well; add in the vodka and gin; shake. Strain into a martini glass and enjoy!

*Johnna's tip: Who would've thought cilantro would make a drink taste soo good?? Cilantro has such a strong flavor and adds just the right taste to the classic martini. Oya of DC has a cilantro martini that you should try when your in the Chinatown area...go during their happy hour, they have half-priced rolls too;-)
