Along with one of my vets (Very Enthusiastic Testers), we tested two different martinis. Recipe and results follow:
The Recipe: Bacon Martini
- 1/3 oz Vermouth
- 3 oz Bacon infused Vodka
Martini #1 - Regular bacon and Tito's Homemade Vodka
Me:
Smell- no mistaking bacon
Taste- salt, salt , bacon, salt, slight burn
Finish – clean
Tester:
Smell- light and innocent bacon
Taste- clean salt, makes mouth water, slight alcohol burn, bacon
Finish- clean
Martini #2 - Applewood Deep Smoke Bacon and Ketel One Vodka
Me:
Smell- light vodka smell, hint of smoke
Taste- clean salt, makes mouth water, slight alcohol burn, bacon
Finish- salty
Tester:
Smell- maple
Taste- spice, alcohol bitterness, prominent vodka taste
Finish- slight alcohol burn, no maple, SALT!!!!
If you are a bacon fan the Bacon Martini is worth trying, but I don't think it will find its way into your drink recipe rolodex.
Next Monday:
Check back as I make a Old Fashioned with bacon infused Maker's Mark.
Please send in any recipes or ideas you might have for a bacon drink.
Cheers!
