Shamrock Martini

• 4-6 large ice cubes
• 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
• 1/2 tsp peppermint extract
• a few drops green food coloring
• 4 oz Vodka (Try Prarie Organic!)
• 1/4 cup full fat coconut milk
• 1 oz vanilla bean agave syrup*

In a martini shaker add the ice, vanilla, mint, vodka, coconut milk, and agave syrup, and place top on shaker. Shake until well blended. Pour through a strainer into a chilled martini glass, and serve!

*Vanilla Bean Agave Syrup: Combine 1/2 cup boiling water, 1/2 cup agave nectar, one vanilla bean (slit), and stir until agave nectar is dissolved. Let sit until cool, then remove the vanilla bean and pour into a container.  Store in the fridge.
