When I was a young adult (wink!) living in Finland I used to drink this cocktail called Dennis the Menace. Most of us ‘youngsters’ in the nineties enjoyed quite a lot of them – at least where I come from.
So the other day whilst reminiscing about my first full-time job (which was a bartender and a waitress at a local hotspot) I started thinking that maybe I could come up with a similar drink but a bit more ‘mature’ and ‘adult’ version. I present you Springtini Martini!
Served stirred, not shaken!
