Lisa - only try fruity martinis if you like fruity drinks. I tried a fruity martini at Harrison's a while back because I had never had a martini before. I was disappointed and then realized it was my dumb mistake for ordering it to begin with since I don't like fruity drinks.
I had an espresso martini in GR a couple of weekends ago and it tasted like a frappacino. I had the recipe until I lost it - is there a recipe on the website? Or you could try a chocolate martini - those are awesome!!
I've never had a chocolate martini I didn't like. There is this awesome martini bar in Frankfort called Bella Martini, they have over 50 different selections, Smore, Dreamsicle, pumpkin pie, really different choices. The place is really fun and has a great downtown feeling to it...very as Jen would say, "Swanky"
I'm a 30-ish wife to Tim and mom to 3 girls~Caroline 12, Amelia 7, and Greta 6 PLUS little monster boy~Wyatt. I try to live my life as I would want to see it played back in a Lifetime movie. . . with Jennie Garth playing the role of me. I offend an average 3.6 people per day. I'm trying to cut back.

ohhh, I love the Zen martini mixing garden! Funny I was just over at uncommon goods looking at martini stuff...
Hope your storm is ok!
Not a huge martini fan (they're a bit strong for me), but they always look so fun to drink. Any suggestions on a recipe I might like?
Start with something fruity. I am going to make the Wedding Cake Martini for our Christmas party.

JD is correct. If you are a fruity gal, go fruity. If you are a coffee gal, those types are a good start.
