This is one of our favourite drinks of all times. I thought I'd re-share it with Canadian Thanksgiving coming up this weekend this would be a perfect addition to the menu.
It came into our lives in an unsuspecting way - a dingy hotel bar in the middle of nowhere on an unplanned weather related stop when we should have been in California. Cranky and dejected about being stuck in Cincinnati when San Diego would have been a much better stop we went to the hotel bar for a drink and a snack. This was the featured martini. We loved it and have consumed plenty over the years - one good thing to come out of it.
You won't find a better fall beverage than this.

On Monday we officially ran out of both vodka AND Pucker liqueur . . . time for a run to the liquor store!
