How to Make a French Martini with Chambord Raspberry Liqueur
First, start with a cocktail shaker filled with plenty of ice cubes.
Then measure and pour the vodka into the shaker. To make a great vodka martini make sure to use a really good vodka. We use Absolut but you can also use Ketel One or Grey Goose.
Next, measure out the Chambord and add it to the shaker. Chambord is a French raspberry liqueur with a sweet raspberry flavor. The brand started in the late 1980s and the French Martini was first served in New York City. The liqueur itself is modeled after a liqueur produced in the Loire Valley of France during the late 17th century.
Add the pineapple juice to the cocktail shaker. You can use fresh juiced or store-bought pineapple juice. Make sure it is 100% pure pineapple juice without anything added.
Pop the top on the shaker and give it a good shake.
Use a fine mesh strainer to pour this sophisticated cocktail into a chilled cocktail glass.
Garnish French Martini Cocktail Recipe
Garnish this classic recipe with a few fresh berries, a citrus peel, a lemon twist, or even a pineapple wedge.
