How To
How to make a martini that is good
A martini can be made from gin or vodka, vermouth, and water. Mix all ingredients together before serving. It is usually served in a chilled glass. A proper martini should be served straight up, without mixing it with anything else. Mixing it can ruin the flavor.
A martini with two olives on the top is the best way to serve it. Olive brine can be added to the rim of the glass to enhance the flavor.
It doesn't matter what type of alcohol you use, but 100% grain alcohol is preferred like Vodka. This gives the cocktail smoother texture. There are many varieties of vermouths, but we recommend using one without added sugar. Too much sugar makes cocktails too sweet.
Make a martini by adding 2 ounces of dry Vermouth to a shaker. Add 1 ounce of vodka. Add 1 ounce vodka to the mixture and shake vigorously. Pour into a chilled martini glass and garnish with an olive.
You can make a martini by using the shaker. Follow these steps. Don't shake the mixture too vigorously - just enough to combine all ingredients.
