The Cool Yule Martini is a holiday-season cocktail that adds a measure of peppermint schnapps to the classic vodka Martini base. The peppermint creates a cooling, candy-cane finish that makes this a natural fit for December gatherings. Vodka, dry vermouth, and peppermint schnapps, shaken and strained — it’s festive without being overly sweet, keeping the Martini’s essential dryness intact while adding a wintry flourish.
