Lizzie Borden Martini?

Now I’ve heard everything! In today’s Fall River Hearld.

Fall River —
Flaunt Lounge Martini & Wine Bar at 32 Sixth St. knows exactly where it is located. That’s why it offers the Lizzie Borden martini on its extensive drinks menu.
It’s a bold and tangy concoction, much like Fall River’s own Lisbeth Borden. It’s based with tomato juice to depict the blood that stained the victims and house that fateful day 116 years ago.
If lounge-goers don’t care for tomato juice, or God forbid, for Lizzie, they can sample other city-inspired cocktails, like the Corky Row, the Highland Ave., the South End or even the Fall Riviera.
If they’d like to escape the city, there’s always the Pink Panther, cosmopolitan, French kiss or the Paris Hilton (made with champagne of course).
Lizzie Borden Martini
2 ounces vodka
3 ounces tomato juice
1/2 ounce lemon juice
Black pepper to taste
Hot sauce to taste
Splash of Worcestershire sauce
Olives
Chill the martini glass. In a tumbler filled with ice, mix all ingredients, shake and strain into the glass. Garnish with three olives and say cheers to Lizzie!

Mondo Lizzie Borden, Episode 7: NOT Lizzie Borden

Being a collector of the weird and fabulous as it relates to the Borden case, I have files of these images saved during the past twenty years. And I would like to share them with you now. Laugh, gasp, chuckle, or rage, these photos were all on eBay. For a price. I used to write the sellers and let them know they didn’t have a Lizzie, but soon gave up on that practice. They didn’t care. Even though they were committing fraud by the sale of the image as a true Lizzie Borden. Oh well.

Here we go. Enjoy.
