Breakfast Martini Cocktail Recipe with Ingredients and Instructions

The Breakfast Martini is a bright and zesty cocktail that combines gin, orange liqueur, fresh lemon juice, and a spoonful of orange marmalade. Inspired by a traditional English breakfast, it delivers a citrusy, slightly sweet flavor with a subtle bitter edge. Elegant and refreshing, it’s a modern classic that brings a playful twist to the martini family. The orange marmalade can be easily exchanged for a different kind of marmalade.
