Puttin’ on the Fritz (Afshin Feiz)

You’ll have no regrets when you sip this delicious martini, packed with antioxidants. Watermelon juice is loaded with lycopene. And vodka — well, vodka doesn’t have any health benefits, but you’ve got a whole year ahead of you to worry about that.

•1 1/2 oz. vodka
•1/2 oz. Chambord
•2 oz. fresh watermelon juice
Combine ingredients in a cocktail shaker filled with ice and shake until well chilled. Strain into a frozen martini glass and garnish with a
slice of fresh watermelon.

Mojito Rising (Arthur Mendonça)

The caipirinha is Brazil’s answer to the mojito. Instead of rum, the native cane sugar spirit, cachaça, is used. You can always substitute equal parts of silver tequila and light rum.

•1 lime, halved, then cut into quarters
•2 tsp. superfine sugar
•2 1/2 oz. cachaça
Squeeze lime quarters into an old-fashioned glass, then toss in with sugar and muddle together to release the lime oils and dissolve the sugar.
Fill with ice, top with cachaça and garnish with a sprig of mint.
