Place the glass in the freezer. Add all of the ingredients, except for the ice, to a blender and blend on high for a minute. This ensures a nice creamy martini. Transfer the cocktail to a martini shaker, fill with ice and shake well. Strain into the chilled martini glass.

WHIPPED CREAM 1 can coconut milk full-fat, refrigerate overnight 1/2 teaspoon clean vanilla 1 teaspoon honey Place a can of full-fat coconut milk in the refrigerator in advance so that the cream can separate from the milk. Chill your mixing bowl and whisk attachment in the freezer for about 10 minutes before starting. Open the can from the bottom and pour the milk out into a separate container before scraping out the cream. You can use the saved milk for smoothies and other recipes. Add the coconut cream, vanilla and raw honey to the chilled bowl and whip with a hand mixer for about 3-5 minutes. Place the bowl in the fridge until ready to serve. Store an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week. Just whisk for a few seconds before serving each time.
