  • You can also add a splash of orange juice or grapefruit juice to the martini for a more citrusy flavor.
  • If you don't have any gin on hand, you can substitute vodka. However, gin is the traditional spirit used in a Breakfast Martini.

  • Garnish your Breakfast Martini with an orange twist or a twist of lemon.
