As National Martini Day arrives on June 19, there’s no better time to revisit the cocktail that has long stood as the benchmark of elegance in a glass. This year, raise a toast with a conscious pour—crafted from Prairie Organic Spirits, a certified organic, award-winning brand known for its clean profile and seed-to-sip sustainability.

Distilled on family-owned Midwest farms, Prairie Organic Vodka and Gin offer more than just flavor—they offer transparency, craftsmanship, and an eco-friendly ethos that aligns beautifully with modern luxury. Below, we highlight a series of martini recipes ranging from the refined to the refreshingly unexpected, perfect for high-end menus, at-home experimentation, or editorial cocktail features.

A timeless cocktail that hinges on precision and quality, the classic martini allows Prairie’s smooth organic spirits to take center stage. This version has earned a spot in the 2025 Cocktailmanac for good reason.

Ingredients:

• 2 oz Prairie Organic Vodka or Prairie Organic Gin

• 1 oz dry vermouth

• 1 dash orange bitters (optional)

• Lemon peel twist (optional)

Method:

Stir all ingredients with ice in a mixing glass until chilled. Strain into a martini glass and garnish with a lemon twist expressed over the surface. The result is cool, clean, and confident—just like the drink itself.

Ideal for late spring and summer sipping, the Bee Mine brings a playful, fruit-forward profile to the martini format, balanced by a whisper of honey and bright lime acidity.

For those who appreciate depth, texture, and a touch of decadence, the Pistachio Espresso Martini delivers a layered profile with earthy, nutty tones grounded by bold espresso. It’s a standout option for after-dinner service or cocktail-forward tasting menus.
