A Jelly Bean Martini, or as I like to call it a Jelly Bean-tini, because that cracks me up. Soak your favorite jelly beans in vodka for an Easter candy treat for adults!
The perfect ending to a day of family and fun. Put the kids to bed and rifle through those Easter baskets for your favorite candy to snack on and mix yourself a drink.
Better yet, enjoy while hiding those Easter eggs!
The first thing you need to do is buy your favorite vodka and your favorite jelly beans while you are out grabbing candy for the kids’ Easter baskets. I picked up some Starburst Very Berry – YUM!
This isn’t science, it’s jelly beans and vodka. Well, there might be a tick of science as in the more jelly beans you add the more jelly bean flavor the vodka will have, but you see my point. Put a handful of jelly beans into some vodka! Roughly, you can use a half cup of jelly beans for every cup of vodka.
