How To
How to make a delicious martini
A martini (or vodka) is made of gin, vermouth, ice and other ingredients. Before serving, the ingredients should be thoroughly mixed. The chilled glass is preferred. A proper martini should be served straight up, without mixing it with anything else. Mixing it can ruin the flavor.
A martini can be served with two olives. 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 more texture. Many types of vermouths are available, but we recommend choosing one that contains no added sugar. Cocktails can become too sweet with sugar.
To start making a martini, pour 2 ounces of dry vermouth into a shaker filled with ice. 1 ounce vodka. Add 1 ounce vodka to the mixture and shake vigorously. Place in a chilled martini glasses and garnish with an olive.
Make a martini recipe using a shaker. You don't need to shake the mixture much, just enough to combine the ingredients.
