Name: Black Widow Martini
Prep time: 45 min
Cook time: 5 min
Total time: 50 min
Yield: 2 servings
Ingredients: 4 ounces Cherry Syrup; 4 ounces Vodka; 2 ounces Lime Juice; Blue Food Color; Yellow Food Color; 1 cup Crushed Ice; 2 cups frozen, pitted cherries; 2 cups sugar

Combine cherries and sugar in medium saucepan, bring to a slow boil and let simmer for 30 minutes

Strain cherries in a mesh strainer, pushing down solids to release juice.

Combine ice, vodka, cherry syrup, lime juice in a cocktail shaker and shake well

To make your martini black, add two drops of blue and one drop of yellow food color to the shaker.

To get thick 'blood' to drip down the side of your Martini, put 3/4 cup of cherry syrup into a pan and simmer slowly until molasses thick.

Before you add your martini to the glass, place the thickened syrup on a plate and holding the glass at an angle, dip rim of the glass into syrup

Hold the glass up to get the 'blood' to drip down. Rotate around the glass, dipping and then let it drip down.
