==================

----Note: As most martini glasses are filled to 3 oz, this recipe makes enough for 2 if you wish to serve it up.
---To serve it "up": Use a glass that can hold the entire amount. Add ice (use crushed ice if possible), then add the liquor, and stir for at least 30 seconds (or use a shaker if you're not particular). Add the juices, stir (or shake) for about ten seconds, and strain into glasses.

    This is a very potent drink, but you'd never know it! It went over amazingly well for a small gathering at my house. I think we went through a dozen for the 5 of us drinking them (ouch!) - 3/29/09
