This is one of the best cocktails for a Halloween party. This Black Martini replaces vermouth with either blackberry brandy or black raspberry liqueur, although the brandy is the best choice. Another black martini is possible by making a Vodka Martini with Blavod, a black colored vodka.
Ingredients:
- 3 1/2 oz gin or vodka
- 1/2 oz blackberry brandy or black raspberry liqueur
- lemon twist or black olive for garnish
Preparation:
- Pour the ingredients into a cocktail shaker with ice.
- Shake well.
- Strain into a chilled cocktail glass or serve on the rocks in an old-fashioned glass.
- Garnish with a lemon twist or black olive.
