I mentioned a while ago that Sticky Date pudding is a family favourite. Well, strap yourselves in and brace yourself for a new twist on the idea. Sticky Date MARTINI!
Ingredients:
First thing is to make a date syrup. Dissolve the sugar in 250ml water. Toss in the dates and simmer for 10 minutes or until mixture is thick and syrupy. Set aside to cool completely. Strain through a fine sieve. Eat the dates.
Now, to make the actual drink, mix the vodka, schnapps, ice and 100ml date syrup in a cocktail shaker. Shake well to combine.
Drizzle caramel over the rims of 2 martini glasses. Fill with the martini mixture. Top with cream and sprinkle with cinnamon and serve.
