Breakfast Martini

This Breakfast Martini is the perfect sipping cocktail that’s sweet and citrusy while also being beautiful balanced and flavorful!

The Elevated Brunch Martini

This Breakfast Martini is one of my favorite go-to gin cocktails! It’s a newer, must-try drink that was invented by British bartender, Salvatore Calabrese, that’s been an instant classic since 1997!

What I love about this martini is how unique the orange marmalade makes it! Though its uncommon in drinks it’s a super easy ingredient to find which makes it easy to try this martini!

I also love the way something as simple as cinnamon toast garnishes the martini glass to really dress it up! It also doesn’t hurt that I can eat my favorite childhood breakfast treat while making these drinks!

Ingredients For A Breakfast Martini

To begin mixing up this martini grab gin and Cointreau or triple sec if you prefer or just have it on hand! Next, you’ll need orange marmalade, fresh squeezed lemon juice, and orange peel to finish off the drink!

Dress this drink up by sticking wedges of cinnamon sugar toast on the edge of your glass!

Cinnamon Sugar Toast For Garnish

Toast the bread, then immediately spread butter on the warm toast so it will melt and then sprinkle on cinnamon-sugar.

You can purchase pre-made cinnamon-sugar at the grocery store by the spices or you can easily make your own! Just mix together 3 tablespoons of granulated sugar with 1 1/2 teaspoons of ground cinnamon.

How To Make A Breakfast Martini

1. Add marmalade and lemon juice to a cocktail shaker.
2. Stir together with a bar spoon to loosen up the marmalade.
3. Pour the gin and Cointreau into a shaker with ice.
4. Shake vigorously until chilled, about 15 seconds!
5. Strain into a chilled martini glass.
6. Squeeze an orange peel over the drink before dropping it in.
