How To
How to make a delicious martini
A martini consists of gin (or vodka), vermouth and ice. Before mixing the ingredients, it is important to thoroughly combine them. It's best to serve it in a chilled glass. It is best to have a martini straight up. It will taste bad if it is mixed.
The most common way to serve a martini is with two olives on top. Olive brine can be added to the rim of the glass to enhance the flavor.
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 types of vermouths available. We recommend that you choose one with no added sugar. Cocktails can become too sweet with sugar.
Pour 2 ounces dry vermouth into a shaker with ice to make a martini. 1 ounce vodka is added. Add 1 ounce vodka to the mixture and shake vigorously. Mix well in a chilled martini glass. Garnish with an olive.
To make a martini using a shaker, follow the same steps above. You don't need to shake the mixture much, just enough to combine the ingredients.
