In Videos: How to Make a Herring Martini
Do you like herring so much, you're willing to get tipsy from it? After a rough day at the office, nothing says relaxation like a herring juice-spiked Grey Goose drink with a herring garnish and squeeze of lemon juice (to cut the fish oils). Jeremy Lebewohl of the 2nd Avenue Deli conceived of this animal, and will hopefully draw the line at corned beef tini. He somehow makes this gross concept look classy, though. The finger snappy music in the background helps. Video, after the jump.

Grey Goose? The phrase "Vodka Martini" makes as much sense as 'honest politician', military intelligence or, amicable divorce...

My mouth started watering! But why not a gin? Vodka I'm sure is great but a herring gin martini with a twist of lime would be great!

No thanks. I love herring, but that just sounds gross.

If anyone is interested, the "finger snappy music" is "Take Five," originally performed by Dave Brubeck.
