Whether you’re sunning on the Finn & Porter deck or lounging with a flock of impressively dressed friends inside, the martini hits the spot. Names like the Montuckey-tini and the Good Karma-tini provide a reminder that you’re not some uptight Manhattanite climbing the corporate ladder. You’re a Montana bad-ass who knows how to style it up. A sweet-tooth calls for a Bomb Pop martini, featuring Stoli Blueberi. The pomegranate martini is refreshing enough to make you want to go for a jog. Maybe. Probably you’ll just order another pomegranate martini.
