Cocktail Time #4: Flirtini
This recipe calls for citrus vodka. I didn't have any so i just used the raspberry vodka I had from the last drink. This is a nice and sweet cocktail with pineapple juice and cranberry juice. Mix in some coconut rum and flavored vodka and this cocktail goes down nice and easy.

Cocktail Time #3: Raspberry Cosmo
This drink is a bit strong. Rasberry vodka, Grand Marnier, splash of lime juice and splash of cranberry juice. And to get a nice pinkish color, I was a little heavy handed with the cranberry. Plus, I'm a girl drink drunk, so adding more lime and cranberry juice made the drink more tasty and sweet.

Cocktail Time #2: PB&J Martini
I love peanut butter. I eat it straight out of the jar with a spoon. So a cocktail named PB&J, I just had to try. I've never had hazelnut liquor. But hey, I LOVE Nutella. Simple recipe, just 3 ingredients: Raspberry vodka (Smirnoff), hazelnut liquor (Frangelico), and grape juice. And some raspberries for garnish.
I'm used to sweet & fruity cocktails. This one has a nutty flavor that at first sip wasn't too pleasant. But this drink grew on me sip after sip. I appreciated the delicious combination and savored the drink. It's not a chugging drink, it's meant to be enjoyed.
