Possessed by Vodka: A Martini
There's nothing like a cool martini to make you feel fancy. Maybe it's the glassware. Maybe it's the alcohol. Or the cultural use of martinis for sophisticated characters. When I get a martini, it's usually cause i'm in the mood for something different and want something to change it up. Also I will most likely order just one so it's a nice to just have a cocktail and call it a day. Possesed by Vodka Martini Ingredients 2 oz Vodka 1 oz Campari 1 oz Lemon juice 1 oz Simple Syr

The process of crafting this beloved Italian liqueur is indeed a bit intricate and requ
