Are you a Martini fan??? If so, let me know because I have LISTS of them (from the many martini parties I have)!
Here's a really tasty summer-time martini to try:
Martini Slipper
Ingredients:
Ice
1 oz. Midori (or melon liquor)
1 oz. Cointreau
1/2 oz. Lemon juice
Maraschino cherry
Directions:
Fill a cocktail shaker (1/2 way with ice). Add Midori, Cointreau, and lemon juice. Shake well and strain into a martini glass. Add Cherry for garnish!

My fave is a Colorado Bulldog:
1 shot Sky vanilla vodka
1 shot Kahlua
fill glass 3/4 or so full of heavy cream or whole milk
a shot of coke
It taste like a shake. You have to be careful though, they can sneak up on you.

Malibu rum
Sprite or 7Up
Splash of OJ or pineapple juice
Garnish with maraschino cherries, orange and pineapple slices
This is a great summer drink. When my sister-in-law visits from Virginia, we go all out and add paper umbrellas. Of course, after a few of these drinks, we end up with the umbrellas in our hair!

I noticed several have listed cranberry juice. Is this just cranberry juice or cranberry juice cocktail?

For mine, I think either one would be fine, though I usually just stick with plain cranberry. Cranberry juice cocktail isn't quite as tart as plain cranberry juice, so you may prefer it that way.

Either one is fine and ruby red grapefruit juice makes it really yummy.
