Martini Experts Unveil The Bailout Martini
Is it a recession? Is it a meltdown? Whatever it is, it's time for The Bailout Martini, created in the cocktail workshop at martiniart.com.
Brooklyn, Mich. (PRWEB) October 13, 2008 -- Congress passed its $700 billion bailout package. The Dow dropped like a rock in a dizzying 10-day span, Kiplinger's came up with an article called "Six Things To Do While the World Ends" (take a walk, think nice thoughts). Add a martini to that list, says Jerry "Martini Guy" Gonto, co-owner of www.MartiniArt.com.
Gonto dreams up new martini recipes on a regular basis in his "mission critical martini lab." He calls the latest creation out of his cocktail shaker "the perfect martini for our times."
"It's fresh, spicy and delicious," he says. "All the things we hope to see in the economy. Just not too spicy."
While we wait for things to turn around, the martini remains an ideal way to unwind. After all, writer H.L. Mencken called it "the only American invention as perfect as a sonnet." Many great minds have called it their favorite cocktail -- FDR, Winston Churchill, Ernest Hemingway, and a famous capitalist named John D. Rockefeller.
"The feel of that slender up-glass in your hand is a reminder that life can be good in little ways," Gonto adds. With that in mind, MartiniArt.com offers this spicy diversion:
The Bailout Martini
