Ingredients

Ingredients
Martini Glass —No Ice
1 ¾ oz Belvedere Vodka
1 oz Simple Syrup
Squeeze of Fresh Lime Juice
3 Strawberries, Hulled¼ oz Balsamic Vinegar (2 small spoonfuls)

Life is more exciting with a little spunk, and so are martinis! District Bar offers 14 innovative, handcrafted cocktails and the sweet and exotic Strawberry Balsamic Martini tops the list.

The cocktail menu at District Bar was created in part by Bridget Albert, a master mixologist, author and head bartender at the Obama inauguration party in Washington D.C.  Her idea behind the Strawberry Balsamic Martini was to add a little twist on a classic favorite, and the result is absolutely delectable!

Method
Muddle the strawberries with the balsamic vinegar (the better the vinegar, the better the martini will be), simple syrup and lime juice. Add the Belvedere and ice. Shake vigorously and strain into chilled short martini glass. Garnish with half strawberry.
