I invented this martini for Valentine's Day, using the Apricot Nectar from France that Lynn Noordam (my nurse at the clinic) had given me a few weeks ago. Dean said it was the best he'd ever had. The orange color is translucent and velvety as mid-February sun:
Apricot Martini
1 oz Apricot Nectar (Alain Milliar, Product of France)
4 oz Vodka
2 oz Cointreau
1 oz Lemon Syrup Natural Flavor (Seattle's Best Coffee: SBC)
several large ice cubes
shake well in a martini mixer
strain into chilled martini glasses
(enough for two large, or four small, martinis)
Enjoy!!

Try this one out:
THE KEY WEST SUNSET MARTINI
4 oz Gin (may substitute Vodka)
1 oz tangerine juice
a slash of grenadine
Shake and serve up in cocktail glass garnished with orange peel
This ends up looking like a Key West Sunset. It is about the gayest drink around.
Mmmm
sounds yummy C Dale. I'll try it.
