Spicy Cucumber Gin – Make it!!

So, remember last week when I made Spicy Cucumber Gin? You did drop whatever it was you were doing and make some didn’t you? You did rush out and buy Infuse: Oil, Spirit, Water? Good. Then we are all set. I spent a few days admiring my lovely pale green Spicy Cucumber Gin. Oh, I know some of it was going to go in a gin and tonic, my cocktail of choice. But I thought I should start with something a little more simple.

Gin Martini

Something that would let the infusion in the gin shine. What better way than with a martini. A martini lets gin stand up and say, “Notice me.” Which is what my spicy cucumber gin had been saying to me for days. So, a classic simple martini was called for.

Martinis are fairly polarizing. Shaken vs. Stirred, Dirty Martini vs. Clean Martini, or Gin vs. Vodka. Being a gin girl, that was a no brainer. While I love shaking a cocktail, there is something about stirring a martini that just sets the mood. All of a sudden, I feel all rat pack-ish, like Dean Martin is waiting on the couch for his martini.
