With its unique combination of flavors, the Danish Martini is perfect for those who prefer their drinks with a twist.
To make a Danish Martini, you'll need a few key ingredients. Begin by chilling a martini glass in the freezer for at least 15 minutes. This will ensure that your cocktail stays cold and refreshing throughout the drinking experience.
Next, gather your ingredients. You'll need 2 ounces of vodka, 1/2 ounce of aquavit, 1/2 ounce of elderflower liqueur, and a dash of orange bitters.

Next, strain the mixture into your chilled martini glass. The strainer will help remove any ice shards or other unwanted particles from the cocktail, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable drinking experience.
To garnish your Danish Martini, consider adding a twist of lemon or an orange peel. These citrusy accents will add a bright and refreshing touch to the cocktail.
Once you've added your garnish, your Danish Martini is ready to be enjoyed. Sip slowly and savor the unique flavors that this Scandinavian twist on the classic martini has to offer.
