FAQs
Absolutely! I have included both methods (using a blender or a Thermomix) in the recipe card below.
A strawberry martini is made with fresh strawberry puree, vodka and lime juice, whereas a classic martini is made with gin and vermouth, and served with a green olive.
I don't recommend making this strawberry martini recipe ahead of time as it needs to be ice cold when served. As it takes less than 5 minutes to make it really is worth making it just before serving!
