Pink Martini with Peony Jelly

This pink martini recipe is going to knock your socks off. Make it with homemade peony flower jelly if you can. If you do not have access, cherry or berry jelly makes a delicious substitute. Read on for the recipe.

Can You Really Make Jelly from Peony Flowers? Yes!

When I was a little girl, I loved flowers. One of the most memorable times on the farm I grew up on in Indiana is the smell of my grandmother’s peonies. Simply heady and amazing. Filled with such a powerful smell as to knock any thought out of your head except SMELL and SMELL AGAIN. My good garden friend, Kylee Baumle, makes peony jelly. She has a recipe from Our Little Acre posted an amazing blog post on how she made Peony Jelly. You must link through. Read her entire post as she shows what type of petals she collects and all the details. And PEONY JELLY!?!?!?! Say WHAT?!?! I never knew the stuff existed.

Peony Blossoms Taste Like Tutti-Frutti!!!

My youngest daughter carefully reviewed the recipe. She made it at Grandma’s house and brought it home for me. Absolutely wonderful. It tastes marvelous, kind of a combination of peaches and tutti-frutti. Peony jelly is a perfect ingredient for a pink martini. Below is the recipe and a video showing you how to throw together the pink martini in just a few minutes.

And so. Isn’t that Craft Cocktail Shaker really wonderful? It’s super easy to use and a bartender can actually fit about 3 martini’s in the container for the big mix up.
