Description

The French Martini is a cocktail made with vodka, raspberry liqueur, and pineapple juice. It is shaken with ice and strained into a martini glass or coupe glass, then garnished with a pineapple wedge or a raspberry. The drink is sweet and fruity, suitable as either a pre-dinner aperitif or a post-dinner digestif. While called a "martini," it does not contain gin or vermouth, instead belonging to the category of modern fruit-based cocktails.

The French Martini is typically served in a V-shaped glass (such as a martini or coupe glass), though it bears little resemblance to a classic martini, and includes vodka and raspberry liqueur. Its flavour profile is characterized by a smooth, medium-bodied balance—neither overly sweet nor excessively tart. Since its emergence, the cocktail has gained recognition as a popular modern creation within the new-era cocktail category. Numerous variations exist, with adjustments to ingredient ratios (e.g., vodka-to-liqueur proportions), alternative fruit components (such as substituting other tropical juices), or the use of different liqueurs to alter its sweetness or complexity.
