Instructions

Currently being invented by the bar staff at the Brookfield Majestic in WI. I was goofing around at work trying to come up with something fruity and this evolved from my initial Fruit Punch mixer version of the drink. So... the other way to do this is to leave out the pucker, Lime and cointreau and build the drink in a high ball glass with the vodkas on ice and fill the remainder with half Lemonade and half Cranberry. This is a drink in progress so feel free to give advice and make changes to the recipe and I'll try them out.Shake it all, I like to throw a slice of Lemon and Lime in the shaker, strain it into a cocktail glass. Sugar on the rim is up to you, I like to drop a Cherry in the glass also.

kitchen sink martini - Summary

The Kitchen Sink Martini is a vibrant and eclectic cocktail that embodies the spirit of experimentation and fun. Its name suggests a whimsical approach to mixology, where a variety of flavors come together in one glass, much like the expression "everything but the kitchen sink." This drink is a fruity and colorful mix that combines multiple flavored vodkas—blueberry, raspberry, apple, and lemon—creating a complex base that is both sweet and tangy. The addition of cranberry juice and lemonade enhances the fruitiness, while a touch of Sour Apple Pucker Schnapps and lime juice adds a tart edge. Orange liqueur rounds out the mix, providing a citrusy depth that ties all the flavors together into a harmonious blend.

While the exact origins of the Kitchen Sink Martini are not well-documented, it is likely a modern creation born out of the cocktail renaissance of the late 20th and early 21st centuries, a time when mixologists began experimenting with bold combinations and flavored spirits. This cocktail is a testament to the creative and playful nature of contemporary bartending, where the goal is often to surprise and delight with unexpected yet delicious flavor profiles. Its colorful ingredients and refreshing taste make it an appealing choice for those seeking a lively and unconventional martini experience.

This drink style is classified as a Cocktail and is Alcoholic, so drink responsibly! The recommended glass type for this drink is a Rocks or Old-Fashioned Glass. We say, feel free to serve it in whatever you have available; it will still taste the same :)

You may also use different variations of the same ingredient. For example, you could change up fruit types or sugar substitutes. Other substitutions would include different brands of liquor. For example, if your drink calls for a specific type of whiskey, you could try using bourbon instead of Irish.

Crafting cocktails should be fun, so get creative and make it your own. Who knows, you might find your next favorite!
