Cocktail cures for hurricane stress

Sage Martini

At first this sage and gin concoction looks like a cinch, and if you can look pass the 45 second stir session, it is. But since you might be cooped up for a few days, we suggest that you take this as an alternative to working out. Thank La Cofradia for the unofficial weight loss program.

Recipe:

6 ounces Millers gin
9 large sage leaves

Add gin and eight sage leaves to a shaker with ice and stir for approximately 45 seconds.  Do not shake.  Strain into a martini glass, that's been sitting on some bags of ice. Curl the remaining sage leaf and float on top of drink mixture. Place one drop of dry vermouth on top of the sage leaf. Serve.
