The glasses were all really awesome. Aunt Janice had the most original - the Redneck Martini Glass. It was basically a mason jar on a stem! Mindy stole for it and since she was the last to draw, she got to keep it. Here's a shot of all the glasses:
The martinis were super-delicious. Except for the Lemon Cake martini. It was gross with a capital G! Here's a shot of the bartender mixing them up while sporting an awesome fastenator, as well as a shot of the Bubble Gum Martini. (P.S. I think Dad was secretly disappointed he had a tee time that didn't coincide with the party and he couldn't be the bartender!)
Everyone had tons of fun - even the "old" aunts! I am sure they don't like that they are now the old aunts, but if it makes them feel any better, my friends loved them and didn't want them to leave!
Mom was the DD - hope she was ok to drive! :)
A good time was had by all.
Not sure what my next party will be, but I have so much darn liquor left over I might need to host a poker night and serve the martinis again. All that is, except the Lemon Cake Martinis. Anyone in the market for Limoncello liquor...cause I got tons!
Bubble Gum Martini:
1 oz Three Olives Bubble Gum Vodka
2 oz Lemonade
Run lemon slice over edge of glass and dip in sugar. Mix vodka and lemonade in shaker over ice. Pour. Garnish with a pink gumball.
Chocolate Martini:
2 oz Trader Vick's Chocolate Liquor
2 oz Creme de Cacao
1 oz Half and Half
2 oz Freezing Three Olives Chocolate Vodka
White Chocolate Shavings
Combine the chocolate liquor, Creme de Cacao, and chocolate vodka into a cocktail shaker half full of cracked ice.
Shake for one full minute. Add the half-and-half to the shaker and gently swirl (circular motion). Pour. Top each martini with shaved chocolate.
