HAPPY THANKSGIVING - Turkey Martini


By The MARTINI DIVA (Visit website)



Download the full sized print quality recipe card here The OfficialTURKEY DAY MARTINI For the past several Thanksgiving holiday seasons I've wanted to create a martini inspired by a traditional Thanksgiving dinner but all I could conjure up in my head was a glass of turkey gravy garnished with a twist of browned turkey skin.  I'd shudder and go back to the Thanksgiving dessert table for my holiday inspiration. When I was making my grocery list for Thanksgiving dinner this year, my list included chicken broth and suddenly a light bulb went on over my head.
BULLSHOTS!A Bullshot is a cocktail made with beef broth and vodka, it was a popular drink at brunch back in the days of the fern bars.  I hadn't thought of a Bullshot in years, they went out of fashion about the time the fern bars disappeared, but once the memory floated up to my conscious brain I realized it would be a great inspiration for my "turkey" martini.  Instead of a gravy martini I could do a broth martini! I used bacon vodka in place of the plain vodka called for in a classic Bullshot, made a poultry seasoning rim instead of adding celery salt and replaced the beef bouillon with low salt chicken broth, BUT. . . .the whole key to this savory thanksgiving meal martini is the garnish.  I've included all the classic flavors from a traditional Thanksgiving dinner on the martini pick - a couple bites of turkey, a couple of croutons as the dressing, a couple of cranberries and a bite of yam.  Then I added the pickled green bean to represent the ever popular green bean casserole!  Place the loaded martini pick across the rim of your glass so the croutons don't get soggy and when you drink it you can swirl the garnished pick in your martini! Now you really can drink your dinner.

PLEASE drink responsibly this holiday weekend andHAPPY THANKSGIVING! Previous Thanksgiving Martinis:
