Steps:
- Mix together with crushed ice in a glass and garnish with mint leaves.
ROSEMARY MARTINIS
Steps:
- At least 1 day before serving, combine the olives and chopped rosemary in a small dish and pour over some of the brine from the olive jar to cover. Cover and refrigerate.
- About 1 hour before serving, rub the sprig of rosemary between the palms of your hands for 10 to 15 seconds and put it in a cocktail pitcher. Pour the gin and vermouth over, stir to mix, and refrigerate.
- Just before serving, add a generous handful of ice cubes to the pitcher and stir gently for a minute to give it an extra dose of chill. Pour the martini into stemless martini glasses, leaving the ice behind in the pitcher. Very briefly rinse the olives to remove any clinging rosemary and spear 2 each onto cocktail picks or small rosemary sprigs (with lower leaves removed), adding a pick to each glass.

Steps:

GRAPE CRUSH MARTINI
Steps:
- Reserve 4 grapes for garnish. Crush remaining grapes in a shaker with a wooden spoon to release juice. Strain through a fine-mesh strainer; discard solids. (You should have about 1/2 cup juice.) Rinse out shaker. Stir vodka and sugar in a bowl until sugar dissolves, about 3 minutes. Combine grape juice, vodka mixture, lime juice and ice in shaker. Shake well and strain into 4 martini glasses. Garnish each with 1 grape and serve.
Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh, ripe grapes. If you can't find fresh grapes, you can use frozen grapes that have been thawed and drained.
- If you don't have rosemary syrup, you can make your own by simmering 1 cup of sugar, 1 cup of water, and 1 sprig of rosemary in a saucepan until the sugar has dissolved. Remove the rosemary sprig and let the syrup cool completely before using.
- If you don't have lemon juice, you can use lime juice instead.
- To make the martini extra special, rim the glass with sugar before adding the ingredients.
- Garnish the martini with a grape and a sprig of rosemary.

The Grape Rosemary Martini is a refreshing and flavorful cocktail that is perfect for any occasion. With its beautiful purple color and fragrant rosemary, this martini is sure to impress your guests. So next time you're looking for a delicious and easy-to-make cocktail, give the Grape Rosemary Martini a try.
