The Breakfast Martini Cocktail Recipe

The Breakfast Martini Cocktail Recipe
Who says you can’t drink gin for breakfast?

While not truly a Martini, this delicious variation on a gin sour is one of the best flavoured variants to come out of the 1990s. Created by Salvatore Calabrese in London, this drink has a great sense of balance. The orange marmalade brings a delicious bitterness and silky smooth texture. A perfect concoction to pair with spice-forward dry gins.

Bartender’s Top Tips

Remember to chill your glass in the freezer for 5 minutes before you fill it, to keep your drink colder and fresher for longer.

Fine straining through a mesh strainer (like a tea strainer), removes all the small chips of ice and bits of marmalade to create a silky smooth texture.
