I revisited my originally simpler recipe to make it more Martini-like in July 2026. The previous recipe:
50ml (1⅔oz) Vodka
45ml (1½oz) Cherry juice
5 (1 barspoon) Sugar syrup
A fairly simple "Martini". My cherry juice was sweet enough to leave out the small amount of the rich syrup and it was very nice. Nice cherry flavor, but this will greatly depend on the cherry juice you use. Well done Simon.
