Ruby Tingle Martini

Cocktail Description

The Ruby Tingle Martini is a sophisticated crimson-hued cocktail that balances sweet fruit notes with bitter complexity for an unforgettable aperitif experience.

This eye-catching martini combines the bitter orange notes of Campari with fresh lime's bright acidity and the rich, dark fruit sweetness of Crème de Cassis, creating a flavor profile that's simultaneously tart, sweet, and pleasantly bitter. The cocktail's straightforward preparation makes it accessible for home bartenders of all skill levels—simply shake, strain, and serve. It makes a perfect pre-dinner drink on summer evenings when you're looking for something more adventurous than a typical aperitif. The Ruby Tingle pairs beautifully with salty snacks like marcona almonds or olives, but also complements light seafood dishes and Mediterranean-inspired appetizers. For a special occasion dinner party, prepare a batch in advance and watch your guests' eyes light up when you serve these vibrant ruby-colored martinis alongside your first course.
