Cocktail recipe

Rating

3.81 / 5
The Floral Martini is a delicate and aromatic twist on the classic martini, designed to enchant the palate with its garden-inspired essence. At its core, this cocktail features a robust foundation of gin, which is then harmoniously blended with the subtle, crisp notes of cucumber. White vermouth contributes a light, slightly herbal complexity, while the rose vodka imparts a fragrant, sweet floral tone that elevates the drink to a sophisticated bouquet of flavors. Typically served in a sleek cocktail glass, the Floral Martini is often garnished with a rose petal, enhancing its elegant appearance and reinforcing its botanical character, making it a refreshing choice for those who appreciate a drink that marries the spirit of traditional mixology with the allure of a springtime garden.
