i just tried this out before serving it tomorrow to my guests at "girls night in", and it's quite good. the ingredients really blend to form a flavorful whole. stick to one drink per guest, though; they're strong!

This has become a new standard for entertaining. If we have a cocktail party without green tea martinis, we get several requests. A repeat favorite.
I brewed a strong green tea and mixed with vodka and a splash of simple syrup. I shook it up in a martini shaker and poured out a decent martini at quite a savings.
