Lovely Libation

We asked Manny Vides, Head Mixologist at Koko Restaurant + Bar, to whip up something special as we say goodbye to patio season.

Without further ado, we present his to-die-for Vitamin Daily Martini:

1 1/2 oz Cîroc Vodka
1 oz Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc Wine

6 green grapes

1/2 oz fresh lime juice

1 oz jasmine tea syrup (optional)

6 mint leaves




Muddle the grapes in a glass. 
Add all the ingredients and fill a glass shaker with ice, then shake for 8-10 seconds. 
Double strain into a martini glass. 
Garnish with mint, jasmine tea buds and Sauvignon Blanc foam
