Candi Bartini: DIY martinis

If you like sweet drinks, Uptown Cafeteria and Support Group has a DIY candy martini bar.  I love sweet drinks and candy but I don’t think I could control myself not to go overboard and make a horribly sugar-loaded concoction with the amount of drink-making options available.

First add your preferred mixers from a choice of juices, fresh purees and other options, says General Manager Tom Schoenberger. Then rim your glass with whatever you choose, from seasoned salts to tangy Pop Rocks or crushed cookies. Then garnish your glass with candy galore – everything from Gummi Bears and red-hots to Sour Patch Kids and marshmallows.

Every Thursday from 7pm – close
$8 gets you ice, vodka and all of the sugar you can fit into a martini glass!
