New Years Eve is coming up and Mrs Cad loves fruity vodka martinis. I happen to have a shot bottle of Absolut Cherrykran and one of Absolute Hibiskus. Any recipies out there either together or two separate ones to make her some drinks while she watches Anderson and Kathie?

One of my favorite restaurants is a Russian place that serves a thing called Marusya Gold which is their homemade cherry vodka mixed with champagne. They throw a cherry in the bottom. It’s super tasty but also deceivingly potent so moderation is a definite key.

If I was going to mix the two into one drink, I would add to them 2 oz. of simple syrup, and a squeeze of fresh lime juice. Shake with ice and pour into a chilled martini glass.
