The Moonlight Martini.
This is another cocktail from the Savoy Cocktail Book and is described as ‘dry but not unpleasant’. That’s about right. It’s a very fruity but I’m guessing that this could change depending on what type of Sauvignon Blanc you use.
I liked this a lot I’m not sure that I’d want to drink more than one but it’s another one to give to people that like cocktails to be fruity. The grapefruit juice gives it a lovely pink colour too!
(I feel I should also apologise for the state of my kitchen wall as displayed in these photos, it’s in desperate need of painting but doesn’t look nearly as bad as the flash suggests!)

What
1 1/2oz of gin
1/4oz kirschwasser
1oz sauvignon blanc
1 1/4oz freshly squeezed grapefruit juice
How
1) Shake all ingredients over ice
2) Pour into chilled cocktail glass
