Ingredients
- 2.5 ounces Premium vodka
- 0.5 ounces Dry sherry
- 1 piece Orange peel
- 1 cup Ice cubes
Directions
Step 1
Chill a martini glass by placing it in the freezer for a few minutes or filling it with ice water and setting it aside.
Step 2
Prepare an orange peel by carefully slicing it with a paring knife, ensuring there is no pith attached to the peel. It should be about 2-3 inches long.
Step 3
Remove the chilled martini glass from the freezer (or empty out the ice water if using that method).
Step 4
Lightly flambé the interior of the glass by holding the orange peel over the rim and using a lighter or match to express the oils (squeeze the peel towards the flame). This creates a smoky orange essence in the glass. Be cautious and perform this step safely, away from flammable materials.
Step 5
Add the dry sherry to the prepared martini glass, swirl it around to coat the interior, then discard the excess sherry.
Step 6
Fill a cocktail shaker with ice cubes, then pour in the vodka. Stir vigorously for 15-20 seconds to chill the vodka thoroughly.
Step 7
Strain the vodka into the prepared martini glass.
Step 8
Garnish the martini by expressing another orange peel over the drink to release the oils, and drop the peel into the glass (optional).
Step 9
Serve immediately and enjoy the aromatic and elegant Flame of Love Martini.
