Hold the glass up to the setting sun so that the ice splinters are melted by the sunlight, thereby capturing the sunlight in the glass. Drink before the temperature of the martini gets too warm and the sunlight escapes. This ritual is optional for subsequent martinis, in case of emergencies and in Arizona. YMMV.  |
I like the way you think, Slappy.
