How To
How to make a good martini?
A martini is made with gin, vermouth, and ice. Before mixing the ingredients, it is important to thoroughly combine them. It is usually served in a chilled glass. A good martini should always be served straight up. If you mix it, then you ruin the taste.
Two olives are the most popular way to serve a martini. If you wish to add more flavor to your drink, you can put olive brine around the rim.
Although you can use any type or alcohol, it is better to use 100%-grain alcohol such as Vodka or Gin. This gives the cocktail an easier texture. Although there are many vermouths on the market, we recommend one that does not contain any added sugar. Too much sugar makes cocktails too sweet.
To make a martini, add 2 ounces of dry vodka to a shaker. 1 ounce vodka. Combine all ingredients in a shaker until smooth. Place in a chilled martini glasses and garnish with an olive.
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.
