Vodka, warm ginger and spiced caramel, served with a cinnamon-sugar rim and a little gingerbread star. A cosy winter Martini with a gentle spice. Vodka 51 Connoisseur Reserve keeps it silky rather than sweet.

How to make it

Rim half of a chilled martini glass with cinnamon sugar.

Shake the vodka, ginger liqueur, syrup and lemon juice hard with ice for about 12 seconds.

Double strain into the glass and set a gingerbread star beside it.

From the Master Blender

Rim only half of the glass. That way you can choose a sip with the spice or a sip without it.
