COTTON CANDY VODKA DRINK RECIPES RECIPES

Steps:

• Chill a martini glass or coupe. To prepare rim, rub the rim of the martini glass or coupe with the lemon wedge. With the sprinkles on a saucer, dip either half or the entire rim of the glass in the sprinkles to coat. In a cocktail shaker, add ice, vanilla vodka, cranberry juice, lemon juice, and grenadine. Shake to chill. Place cotton candy in prepared glass. Strain into prepared glass over cotton candy, allowing it to dissolve. Variations and Substitutions There are no limits when it comes to cotton candy martinis. To create different colors, skip the cranberry juice and grenadine for white grape juice. Your drink will take on the color of your cotton candy, instead. Use cotton candy vodka instead of vanilla. Skip the cotton candy if need be. Add more or less lemon juice based on how you want your martini to taste. For a sweeter martini, add a splash of simple syrup. Garnishes Whether you aren't a fan of cocktail rims or you don't have sprinkles on hand, don't fret. Add a lemon wheel, wedge, or slice. Use a lemon ribbon or twist for a pop of color without adding as much acidity. Opt for an orange wheel, slice, ribbon, or twist for a softer citrus touch. Pierce a cherry on a cocktail skewer or add to another garnish or two.
