Yes that’s right. Today is National Martini Day. And if I drank Martinis (and wasn’t just recovering from a fairly brutal summer cold) I would be shaking myself up one of these babies right about now. It’s my daughter’s last day of school, and while that means the end of the miles-long series of school related activities/celebrations/performances/etc, it also means that the two of us are about to become 24-hour constant companions. With all the joy and pain that accompanies that particular situation.
So bottoms up!
For those of you who may want to dig a bit deeper into the world of this classic libation, I give you a bit of martini history, a whole bunch of martini recipes (from the classic to the blood orange cabernet you never knew you were craving), a photographic survey of some of this drink’s most iconic fans, and, last but not least, a lovely post about how one might get over a hangover (not that any of you will need that, but just in case…)
