what is in a french martini?? its yummy!!?

Answer 1

The key ingredient in this cocktails is Chambord, which is made from black raspberries, honey, vanilla and some herbs. Chambord has been made for about 300 years in France (since 1685) and is a sweet, but tasty liqueur. Chambord is all natural, unlike other synthetically flavour liqueurs and is a very versatile liqueur in cocktails. It is relatively light in alcohol strength, at 23%, and has a retail price, for a 750ml bottle, of $38 CDN ($30US).

The French Martini was created by the Chambord liqueur company for a world wide promotion. It seems to have worked, and the cocktail is now quite popular. This is what liqueur and spirit companies need to do when creating cocktails. Most spirit companies just take the name of their product and apply it to a long list of classic cocktails. That’s just so boring and unimaginative. But is Chambord’s case, they created a popular cocktail that is original and tied to the product. This is good marketing.

French Martini

2 oz Vodka
½ oz Chambord
2 ½ oz Pineapple Juice

Back a shaker full of ice and add all ingredients. Shake or stir*. Stain into a martini glass. Garnish with a lemon twist.

* I shake because the pineapple juice makes the drink cloudy anyway, and the shaking give the drink a nice light texture because pineapple juice froths nicely.

When the Chambord company was creating the French Martini, it might have been more French to include brandy instead of vodka. One of these days I’ll shake one up with brandy and check out whether it works or not. They probably tried it and decided that for mass appeal and the martini moniker, vodka was the proper choice. For now, if you want to put a little more “french” in your French Martini, use Ciroc vodka which is a grape based vodka (sounds like grappa to me). Or you can use the ubiquitous Grey Goose vodka which is of french origin.

Another good cocktail to make with Chambord is simply adding an ounce to a flute of champagne. This is a much nicer cocktail than a Kir Royale, even though a Kir Royale is a great drink also. It's good to mix thing up every once in a while.

Answer 2

A french martini is made with 4/5 vodka, 1/5 pineapple juice, and a drop of chambord (which gives it that lovely pink hue). They are delicious!

Like frost on the lips from the beginning but then you slowly and slowly start to feel a warm sensation upon your lips. Just like the warm air in the spring, the weather is still a bit chilly but there is that one warm air blowing that signifys and signaling that summer is coming. Edit: if you don't believe in Vampire, why do you even want to know how their kiss taste like? And you don't believe in them means that they don't exist, so how will anyone ever know? Lol, you said that someone will come up with the real answer you're looking for!!!...when vampire doesn't even exist!! No one knows so the only answers that you will get will be silly ones. I believe they exist though:)...but not in that form.
