Smoking Martini

The Smoking Martini from Sea Grill in Tacoma, WA, was created by Thomas Johnson, Assistant General Manager. Here’s how he got the idea: “When I was a child my neighbors had a pomegranate tree in their yard. In the summer we would always pick the pomegranates and have seed wars, spitting the seeds at each other. The summer reminded me of this fruit of my youth so we came up with a smoking martini that is made with pomegranate syrup. The pomegranate juice is nicely balanced with Absolute Citron.”

1.5 oz Absolut Citron
.75 oz Cointreau
.5 oz White cranberry juice
.5 oz Pomegranate syrup
Muddled with two limes
Add dry ice to garnish
(a cube about the size of a grape)

This playful cocktail, made with SEX Vodka and rose nectar, is the perfect drink to get you in the mood for a sexy show.
