NEW VIDEO: Rainbow Martini

KQ host Mitch Hightower shows you how to make his recipe for a Rainbow Martini, complete with a six-color sugar rim. This shimmery pink cocktail mix is a riff on a classic "top shelf" gin martini with a hint of orange. Luster dust is the secret ingredient for creating the shimmer effect. This stirred, not shaken, cocktail is double strained as well to avoid ice chips in the finished drink. Chef Philip serves as the guest taste tester for KQ Season 4, Episode 9, (S4E9N69-HD).

Cocktail Experiment: Purple Shimmertini

Kitchen Queers host Mitch Hightower has been busy working in the bar on a series of new, colorful cocktails.  The image in this posting features a purple concoction created with purple "shimmer" liqueur, house made sweetened purple vodka and, yes, more vodka.  The shimmer liqueur has a tasty citrus, berry and peach flavor profile.  And the luster dust in the liqueur creates a definitive shimmer effect in the finished cocktail.  This mix will likely be featured in an upcoming KQ Season 3 episode.  Cheers!
