About
The Blue Eyed Martini is a sleek, sophisticated twist on the classic Vodka Martini that adds a splash of Blue Curaçao alongside gin and dry vermouth, turning the drink a haunting, translucent blue. The result is a crisp, spirit-forward martini with a subtle citrus sweetness from the Blue Curaçao — just enough to soften the edges without making it sweet. The piney botanicals of gin thread through the vodka base, while the vermouth adds its characteristic herbal dryness. Serve it ice cold with a lemon twist, and the Blue Curaçao will catch the light in a way that makes the glass look almost luminescent.
Instructions
- Chill a martini glass by filling it with ice water and setting aside.
- Combine vodka, gin, dry vermouth, and Blue Curaçao in a mixing glass with ice.
- Stir for 30–40 seconds until well chilled and diluted.
- Discard the ice water from the martini glass.
- Strain the cocktail into the chilled glass.
- Express a lemon peel over the drink and use it as a garnish.
