Eggnog martini

Eggnog Martini makes a wonderful holiday drink and is very easy to prepare. It only has four ingredients, eggnog caramel syrup, cinnamon, and sugar. It is important to remember that this cocktail doesn't contain any brandy or whiskey. Using regular vodka will make the drink too sweet.

How To
How to make an excellent martini
A martini (or vodka) is made of gin, vermouth, ice and other ingredients. Before mixing the ingredients, it is important to thoroughly combine them. It's best to serve it in a chilled glass. A good martini should always be served straight up. You ruin the taste if you mix it.
A martini with two olives on the top is the best way to serve it. You can also add olive brine to the rim of your glass if you want to make your drink more flavorful.
While you can use any alcohol, it's better to use 100% of the grain alcohol like Vodka and Gin. This gives the cocktail more texture. Many types of vermouths are available, but we recommend choosing one that contains no added sugar. Cocktails that contain sugar are too sweet.
Pour 2 ounces dry vermouth into a shaker with ice to make a martini. Add 1 ounce vodka. Shake vigorously until well combined. In a chilled martini shaker, add the olive and garnish with a lemon wedge.
Follow the steps above to make a martini with a shaker. You don't need to shake the mixture much, just enough to combine the ingredients.
