Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 1.5 oz vanilla vodka
- 1 oz Cointreau
- 2 oz heavy cream
- 1 cup ice cubes
- 1–2 teaspoons sugar (optional)
- Fresh mint leaves (for garnish)
- Powdered sugar (optional, for rim)
Instructions
- Rinse the blueberries under cold water and pat them dry. Reserve a few for garnishing later.
- In a blender, combine 1 cup of fresh blueberries, 1.5 oz (45 ml) vanilla vodka, 1 oz (30 ml) Cointreau, 2 oz (60 ml) heavy cream, and 1 cup of ice cubes. Add 1–2 teaspoons of sugar if desired. Blend until smooth and frothy.
- Using a fine-mesh strainer, pour the blended mixture into a clean bowl or directly into your cocktail shaker. This step ensures your martini is silky-smooth without bits of blueberry pulp.
- If you’re feeling extra fancy, dip the rim of your martini glasses in a small dish of water or lemon juice, then coat with powdered sugar for a snowy effect.
- Pour the strained mixture into the prepared martini glasses. Top with a few fresh blueberries and a sprig of mint for garnish.
- Serve immediately and sip away while enjoying your cozy winter evening.
