Make Ahead Martini Recipes
MAKE-AHEAD MARTINI
Daniel Osborne, the bar manager at Abigail Hall in Portland, Ore., can satisfy orders for gin and vodka martinis and rye and bourbon manhattans in an instant. Each drink is mixed in bulk, diluted and chilled well ahead of time. Advocates of this process say it results in not only quicker service but also a better, colder and more viscous drink. "Dilution and chill are main ingredients" in a martini, Mr. Osborne said. To find out for yourself, you need to plan only a day before cocktail hour. This recipe will yield two drinks. If you wish to have more ready in advance, simply double or triple the measurements.

Steps:
- Combine the gin, distilled water and vermouth in a mixing glass. Using a funnel, transfer the mixture into a glass bottle. Seal the bottle and store in the freezer overnight.
- When mixture is fully chilled, pour 4 ounces into a chilled cocktail glass. (Because of the presence of water, there is a chance the cocktail will begin to solidify in the freezer. If the drink appears slightly slushy when you remove it from the freezer, give the bottle a slight shake and let it sit for a minute or so before pouring.) Garnish with lemon twist or olive.

CRANBERRY MARTINIS
Steps:
- Several days ahead, place the sugar, cranberries, 6 strips of orange zest, and 1 cup of water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer for 5 minutes, until the cranberries start to pop open. Pour the vodka into a large pitcher, add the cranberry mixture, and store covered in the refrigerator for at least 2 days and up to 5 days.
- When ready to serve, strain the vodka mixture, reserving the cranberries and discarding the orange zest. Stir in the cranberry juice cocktail and Triple Sec. Fill a cocktail shaker with ice, add the drink mixture, shake for a full 30 seconds (it's longer than you think!), and strain into martini glasses. Rub the rim of each glass with fresh orange zest, spoon a few cranberries into each glass, and serve ice cold.

- Madras. Many popular cocktails can be scaled up with ease. The madras is one example of how a single drink can turn into a wonderful fruity vodka punch. To make a large batch, simply pour three ounces of cranberry juice for every ounce each of vodka and orange juice.
- Pomegranate Mojito. A little rum, pomegranate, and fresh mint create an amazing pomegranate mojito. This refreshing drink serves eight people and is perfect any time of year, especially when pomegranates come into season during the fall and winter months.
- Best Party Sangria. It's hard to resist sangria and there are endless variations to explore. For summer parties, serve a delicious sweet, red wine version.
- White Wine Mojito. The mojito makes a great pitcher drink because it's so simple. For a fun twist, mix one up using white wine. It swaps rum for vino and adds sparkling lemonade to the mix.
- Raspberry Tequila Sangria. It's a berrylicious margarita and sangria in one pitcher and everyone will want a taste of this raspberry tequila sangria. The recipe muddles fresh raspberries with white wine, tequila, and triple sec, then gets a brilliant sparkle from ginger ale.
- Pineapple Mimosa. Take your pitcher of mimosas to new heights with pineapple. The recipe combines lemon and orange juices, is sweetened with honey syrup, and gets a nice fizziness from Prosecco.
- New Zealander Sangria. Kiwis and tangerines are the stars of this New Zealander sangria. It's ideal for a casual brunch, pairing perfectly with any sweet or savory bites you might serve.
- Belmont Jewel. For any group that enjoys a good whiskey cocktail, this one's a guaranteed hit. The Belmont jewel is a delicious combination of bourbon, lemonade, and pomegranate juice.
- Red Stag Lemonade. Cherry-flavored bourbon and sweet strawberry liqueur form the foundation of the Red Stag lemonade. It's as delicious as it sounds, especially once topped with soda.
- Pimm's and Lemonade. Pimm's is as British as Earl Grey tea and it's fantastic with a fizzy lemonade. Toss in fresh cucumber, mint, oranges, and strawberries and you have the unforgettable Pimm's and lemonade, a lovely addition to any summer affair.
