Strawberry Shortcake Martini

It’s Thirsty Thursday, and time for Cocktails by the Sea! Each week, we feature a different cocktail recipe that you can make for yourself, to help you unwind and enjoy your weekend down the shore (or wherever you are).

Friday, June 14 is National Strawberry Shortcake Day. We were lucky to find a bottle of Bailey’s Strawberries and Cream Liqueur just in time to celebrate, so we whipped up a delicious Strawberry Shortcake Martini. For best results, enjoy with a shortbread cookie or, if you’re really feeling ambitious, some homemade shortcake. Enjoy!
