JAX MARTINIS
This curated selection is a small excerpt from the Jax martini diaries. Ranging from the exploratory to the timeless, this is a perfect way to warm up and cool off all at once.-
SO FRESH AND SO CLEAN CLEAN
Ketel One treated like it wants to be treated. With 45 shakes, this is a snip- pet of Jax legacy in a glass. A traditional straight up martini that we suggest adding a spoonful of american caviar to enjoy alongside +5
$15
-
LE DIRTY DOZEN
With the bayou in mind, and Titos as the carrier we’ve loaded this one with all the dirty dirty, & we bet you’ll tap your foot with involuntary pleasure no less than 12 times. Wanna really get down? Add a skewer loaded with small green olives, guindillas and 2 cured anchovies +4
$15
-
SIREN OR MUSE
A high percentage of vermouth and a gentle stir triggers last night’s dream about Paris. Oh the florality, and what it means to enjoy life intensely but simply with Hendricks gin. Who doesn’t want this?
$15
-
17TH STREET
A staple at our LODO location since before ”way back when” & a lil nod to NOLA with the frenchy inclusion of Pernod & gin. This is timeless and forward all at once.
