The Grilled Cheese Martini is the Best of Both Worlds
Souzan Michael — August 28, 2011 — Lifestyle
Those of you who love cheese and martinis will love the Grilled Cheese martini. Everyone loves a great snack at the end of the day, and happy hour is a great way to relax after a hectic day; why not combine the two?
Beecher's cheese emporium in New York City (which also has a location in Seattle) combines two of the ultimate vices, alcohol and greasy food, for an apparently delicious spin on comfort food. The Grilled Cheese martini is simple, really. It's made of grilled cheese sandwich-infused vodka shaken with fresh tomatoes, muddled basil and tomato juice. In case you're wondering, the tomato juice takes the place of the ketchup you would normally dip the sandwich into.
For an after-work snack, or perhaps the ultimate late-night drink, head to one of Beecher's locations and enjoy a Grilled Cheese martini.
