  1. The Pear Martini is GREAT!

    Too many ingredients in the Caramel Turtletini, not something I would make.

  3. Hi! I'm Ben Castria, the Pomegranate Pear Martini creator. This is the first time I've checked this page in a while. Thanks so much for your compliments! It should be noted that if you would prefer, you can substitute white grape juice for the apple juice if the apple juice is too sweet. Also, if you'd prefer raspberry instead of a touch of pomegranate, you can substitute Chambord for the Pama. However, the Chambord does make the drink sweeter than it already is, just fyi. Thank you again for your comments!
