A breakfast martini is a marmalade cocktail with gin, marmalade, orange liqueur, and lemon juice (in place of vermouth), created by bartender Salvatore Calabrese.[1] Although the drink contains no vermouth, the term "breakfast martini" is consistent with the trend of calling any straight liquor in a martini glass a "martini," such as the saketini or other variations.[2]

The drink was invented in 1996 at the Library Bar at the Lanesborough Hotel in London, England.[3] A similar drink, the Marmalade Cocktail, was invented in the 1920s by Harry Craddock and published in his standard reference book, the Savoy Cocktail Book.[4]

The name has been applied to various other martini-style drinks as well.[5]
