How To
How to make a good martini?
A martini can be made from gin or vodka, vermouth, and water. Before serving, the ingredients should be thoroughly mixed. It is typically served in chilled glasses. It is best to have a martini straight up. Mixing it can ruin the flavor.
Two olives are the most popular way to serve a martini. Olive brine can be added to the rim of the glass to enhance the flavor.
You can use any type of alcohol, but it's best to use 100% grain alcohol like Vodka or Gin. This gives the cocktail more texture. There are many types of vermouths available. We recommend that you choose one with no added sugar. Too much sugar makes cocktails too sweet.
Start making a martini. Pour 2 ounces dried vermouth into an ice-filled shaker. Add 1 ounce of vodka. Stir vigorously until combined. Pour into a chilled martini glass and garnish with an olive.
To make a martini using a shaker, follow the same steps above. Be careful not to stir the mixture too much. Only enough is needed to combine all of the ingredients.
