The Batwoman Martini

We continue our Pride Month celebrations withBatwoman Elegy.  Batwoman battles a madwoman known only as Alice, inspired by Alice in Wonderland, who sees her life as a fairy tale and everyone around her as expendable extras! Batwoman must stop Alice from unleashing a toxic death cloud over all of Gotham City — but Alice has more up her sleeve than just poison, and Batwoman’s life will never ever be the same again.

Next week between the supercomputer wired into his brain and the enhancements saturating his body, the living weapon known as Midnighter doesn’t face a lot of real challenges to his uncanny combat skills. Lucky for him, he enjoys beating the tar out of low-level bad guys as much as the high-end ones—and since his recent breakup with his first love (and fellow superhuman) Apollo, he’s had plenty of chances to engage in his unique brand of physical therapy.  We’re reading Midnighter Vol 1 - Out next week!



1.5 oz Vodka

.5 oz of cointreau or triple sec

.5 oz of palmagranite juice.

1.oz of fresh sweet and sour mix

Shake the shit out of it.
