Killer Cocktails: The Last Ticket

This month’s exclusive Killer Nashville Killer Cocktail: The Last Ticket

Mark “Spaz” Morris takes us to 1941 and the upscale Casablanca nightclub of Rick’s Café’ Américain for this month’s concoction.

Spaz loves the idea that everyone is hiding in plain sight. Everyone knows who is involved, but like a game of chess, players must determine whom they can trust. There are two tickets to freedom, and we know who’s going to get them.

The key here is subtlety just like Killer Nashville’s pear-infused gin martini. As you sip, in the distance you will hear “As Time Goes By”.


The Last Ticket

A Killer Nashville Signature Martini

Ingredients:

2-ounces Hanna Gin

½-ounce St. George Spiced Pear Liqueur

Lemon twist

Ice


Directions:

Pour liquor into martini glass and swirl it around to coat the glass. Pour the rest of the liqueur into a shaker tin with ice.

Add gin to the shaker, and shake.

Strain into the coated martini glass.

Rim the glass with the lemon twist and drop in the glass.

Enjoy!
