Strawberry Martini - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 -2 teaspoon sugar, to taste
3 strawberries
1 1/2 teaspoons strawberry syrup (Hersheys)
4 ounces stoli strasberri vodka
Optional
sugar, for the rim
1 strawberry, for garnish

Preparation

Prep martini glasses by either putting them in the freezer to frost or rimming them with sugar.
To rim a glass with sugar slice a very ripe, or over ripe strawberry 1/2 way through and gently wipe it around the edges of the glass so the juice just barely coats it.
Now turn it upside down into a shallow dish filled with sugar.
In a shaker put clean, hulled strawberries in bottom and mash with a wooden spoon until they are very well smashed.
Add fresh Ice to fill the shaker and add the vodka, strawberry syrup and about 1 tsp sugar or more depending on your sweet tooth.
Shake for about 20 seconds until well mixed.
Now pour into the prepped glasses, garnish and serve!
