Recipe: Jalapeño Martini at Playland Bar


When we go out on Polk St we always stop by Playland Bar. They have the best cocktails, and one of our favorites is the Jalapeño Martini, perfect for warm weather. Here is our interpretation:

Ingredients:
3 oz. jalapeño infused vodka
1/4 oz. dry vermouth
cucumber (for garnish)

Combine all ingredients in a cocktail shaker with ice. Shake and strain into a chilled martini glass. Add a slice of cucumber to garnish.

Serves one.

Fashion Icon: Crown Princess Marie-Chantal of Greece

We have been admiring the style of Crown Princess Marie-Chantal of Greece ever since she was just Marie-Chantal, one of New York Society's celebrated Miller Sisters.  But the princess, children's clothing designer, and mother of five has developed into a very sophisticated woman, sticking to classic styles and a neutral color palette of white, black, tan, champagne, and dove gray, with the occasional dose of red.  Now a resident of London and frequent guest at royal events, we love seeing what the cool blonde will wear next.
