Recipe wanted: Caribbean Sunset Martini

[LadyBerard]

While sailing on the Century last Feb., I was instroduced to Caribbean Sunset Martinis. Does anyone know how to make these? I just sailed on RCI Grandeur, and they were clueless. Thanks.

Okay, I have the ingredients. These are 4 oz martinis and most start with 3 ounces of gin or vodka and the other two ingredients make up the other ounce. When there are 3 other ingredients, sometimes you only use 2 1/2 oz gin. You'll have to work with it, but that's not a bad thing. Can be quite fun, actually!!:D

 

Tangueray Gin

Peach Schnaps

Pineapple juice

Cranberrry juice

 

I would probably try 3 oz gin, 1/3 oz each of the others and work from there!

 

Happy sipping!

The printout of the recipe calls for:

 

3 oz Tanqueray Gin

1 oz Peach Schnapps

Cranberry juice

Pineapple juice

garnish with a cherry

 

The ratio I have found to be the best (for my taste) is 1 oz each of the juices.

 

As Gail said, you have to experiment with the ratio to get it pleasing to your palate. :) A lot of it has to do with how much ice melt you get while you are doing the Martini shake, shake, shake your booty dance, too. ;)
