The Kraken, in his natural habitat - Ivar’s Lake Union.

I invented this drink at table and it was, um, a learning experience.

2 oz vodka
1 oz clam juice
1 raw, fresh oyster

Shake Vodka and clam juice over ice until clammy. Serve in martini glass. Garnish with oyster. Taste the upwelling fruits of the briny depths.
