If You’re Not Serving Martinis Out of a Fountain, You’re Doing It Wrong

A beautiful, expensive boozy vessel for holiday gatherings

You know what your holiday party is seriously lacking? Our presence, yes.

But also: A martini fountain.

Thankfully, The Grey Goose La Fontaine (via the immersive shopping destination The Line) can solve your latter conundrum. Inspired by “absinthe fountains of yore,” the La Fontaine serves up to ten martinis via three faucets.

It’s also rather striking, a 12-inch-high stainless steel base hoisting a glass orb filled with booze.

Sadly, it’s not available online, though it might be available at The Line’s Apartments (think furnished dwellings but retail) in L.A. or New York, for the totally worth-it price of $1,500.

As for the martini? If you can handle the vodka variation, here’s a perfect recipe.
