How To
How to make a martini that is good
A martini consists of gin (or vodka), vermouth and ice. The ingredients must be mixed together properly before serving. It's best to serve it in a chilled glass. You should serve a proper martini straight up without adding anything. Mixing it can ruin the flavor.
The most common way to serve a martini is with two olives on top. If you wish to add more flavor to your drink, you can put olive brine around the rim.
Any type of alcohol can be used, however it is best to use 100% grain alcohol such as Vodka and Gin. This gives the cocktail a smoother texture. There are many varieties of vermouths, but we recommend using one without added sugar. Cocktails that contain sugar are too sweet.
To start making a martini, pour 2 ounces of dry vermouth into a shaker filled with ice. Add 1 ounce vodka. Combine all ingredients in a shaker until smooth. In a chilled martini shaker, add the olive and garnish with a lemon wedge.
To make a martini using a shaker, follow the same steps above. Remember not to shake the mixture too much - only enough to combine all the ingredients.
