Spanish Nights CEO

Chopin Vodka
Spanish Nights CEO (Chopin Extra Olives) Martini draws from the scents and savories of Spain. Splashed with light Sherry and topped with three Manchego-stuffed olives wrapped in Serrano Ham, the Spanish Nights CEO is a tapas party at play in a martini glass. Serve with extra olives on the side.
