Yes, beady-eyed customers...I know, I really create a vacuum when it comes to blogging. Having said that, I'm going to make it up to you. My daughter, Laurel, and I have created the 'Fandangle Beadtini". Here's the recipe:

2 oz. fig vodka*
1 oz. elderflower liquor
1/2 TB simple syrup (flavor w/ a few slices of fresh ginger when making for a little zing!)
3 oz. fizzy lizzy sparkling grapefruit soda
3 ice cubes

*If you cannot find fig vodka, make your own: Put 3 c. of vodka in a saucepan, add a cup of fresh figs halved and bring to a boil and then simmer until liquid is reduced by half. Cool & bottle.

Shake vigorously & pour into ice cold martini glass. Do not attempt beading after
drinking this delish' concoction! Enjoy!
