Grapefruit Martini

This is a delicious referral from 'Drink Up' where I also received the Smokey Smash featured further down on the blog.  The bartender named this drink the Grapefruit Kiss, which I don't love so went ahead and renamed it something simple and less kissy...Grapefruit Martini.

This was my first use of Agave Nectar, which I didn't realize was basically just a substitute for simple syrup.  It added a less-than-attractive color to the drink, but it has a really smooth sweetness that's a little stronger than simple syrup.  It adds a perfect balance to the bitterness of the grapefruit.

Ingredients:
Grapefruit Vodka (used Finlandia)
White Wine (used Sauvignon Blanc)
Agave Nectar
Grapefruit Juice

In a shaker add 1 oz grapefruit vodka, 1 oz white wine, 1 oz grapefruit juice (fresh squeezed is always best), 1/2 oz agave nectar and ice.  Shake vigorously to make sure the nectar mixes in and strain into a chilled martini glass.  Garnish with a segment of grapefruit.
