Call me a girl, but I love these: Appletini: 2 oz. Vodka 1/2 oz. Apple Pucker Schnapps or, 1/2 oz. Apple Juice or Cider Combine ingredients in a shaker with ice. Shake well and strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Garnish with an Apple Slice

Hardware: Shaker (preferably metal, although plastic will work too) Large Martini Glass Refrigerator (seems obvious, I know, but it's important) Olive Spear Software: 6 oz Gin or Vodka A splash of Dry Vermouth Olives (1 to 3 is traditional) or Lemon Peel Ice (cubes will work, crushed is better) Ahead of Time: Start by refrigerating your vermouth for the amount of time it takes for the bottle to get cold (at least an hour). I'll explain why in a bit. Chill a Martini glass in the refrigerator or the freezer for about 10 minutes. You can go for less time, but I like my Martinis at the lowest possible temperature. The Mixing: Take the glass out of the fridge/freezer and pour a small amount of Vermouth into it. Here's the important bit: swirl the vermouth in the glass so that the sides of the glass are coated. DISCARD THE REMAINING VERMOUTH. Spear an olive or two, and put it in the glass. Pour your gin or vodka (gin is better) into a shaker over copious amounts of ice. Shake the living crap out of it. Seriously, shake it like a revival preacher shaking the devil out of a sinner. Strain into the glass, and you're good to go. -from kuro5hin.com

I like Cuba Libre's myself... Served: "On the rocks"; poured over ice Standard garnish: lime slice Standard drinkware: Highball glass one part rum two parts Cola Dash of lime juice Preparation: Combine ingredients in glass and stir. Squeeze the lime slice into the drink and garnish with the pith.

I'd prefer a Banana Daiquiri with rum or vodka if we're aloud to go that far off topic.

Martinis I like to have a martini, Two at the very most. After three I'm under the table, After four I'm under my host. ..........Dorothy Parker Martinis son como las tetas de una mujer Una no es bastante Tres son demasiado Pero dos? -- es sufficiente! ..............Jose Espino
