These cocktail drinks sounds really good and look really pretty, too! I do enjoy flavored martinis once in a while. Pomegranate martini is actually my favorite, but your mixes here really sounds good, too. I'll be trying it out for sure. But of course, no matter how many flavored martinis I've had, I always crave for that classic and crisp taste of vodka martini.
