Becky’s Tips

• Stir, don’t shake! This is an alcohol-forward cocktail that shouldn’t be shaken with ice, which can dilute the flavors. Stir it for a rounded and silky flavor.
• Enjoy and drink responsibly. These martinis pack a punch!
• Nutritional information does not include sprinkles or whipped cream.
