Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 60 ml Vodka
- 15 ml Grand Marnier
- 10 ml Fresh lemon juice
- 5 ml Simple syrup
- 6 pieces Ice cubes
- 1 piece Orange peel twist
Instructions
Chill a martini glass by placing it in the freezer for a few minutes or filling it with ice water and setting it aside.
In a cocktail shaker, combine the vodka, Grand Marnier, fresh lemon juice, and simple syrup.
Add the ice cubes to the shaker and secure the lid tightly.
Shake the mixture vigorously for 15-20 seconds until the shaker feels well-chilled.
Discard the ice water from the martini glass if using, and strain the cocktail into the chilled glass using a fine mesh or standard cocktail strainer.
Garnish with an orange peel twist by gently twisting it over the glass to release the citrus oils, then place it on the rim or in the drink.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Grand Martini responsibly.
