birthday cake martini

i have a friend named emily.

she is one of the most delightful people i know.

today is her birthday, so i wanted to celebrate with something special.

i just couldn't pass up this adorable way to use sprinkles in a more adult fashion.

LOVE THIS!

ingredients

1 part vanilla vodka

1 part cranberry juice

champagne

rainbow sprinkles

a lemon wedge

directions

1. pour your sprinkles in a flat dish.

turn lemon wedge gently around the top of your martini glass.

dip into the sprinkles gently.

2. pour 1 part vanilla vodka, 1 part cranberry in a shaker with ice.

(about 1 shot each will do)

shake vigorously and pour into your prepared glass.

3. top with champagne.

tip: leave some room at the top, so the sprinkles won't slide into the glass.

give me a break - this is the best grown up birthday party idea EVER.

you could use any cocktail recipe you want.

enjoy! :)

and happy birthday emily!!! :)
