Welcome to Patch's weekly feature—Drink of the Week—where local bartenders will share their recipes for a signature summer drink.
This week, Stephen Jankowski, of in Pleasantville, mixes up a unique blend of vodka and green tea.
Green Tea Ginger Martini:
Take a full cup of ice and fill it approximately ¾ of the way with Absolut Brooklyn vodka (ginger and red apple flavor).
Fill the rest of the glass with green tea.
Squeeze a slice of lemon and a slice of lime into the mixture.
Optional: If you want a little extra fizz, add a splash of champagne.
Mix the ingredients together and pour into a martini glass.
Garnish with fruit if desired.
"It seems to be a summer favorite," Jankowski said of the drink.
