How To

How to make a delicious martini

A martini is made with gin, vermouth, and ice. Before serving, the ingredients should be thoroughly mixed. It is typically served in chilled glasses. It is best to have a martini straight up. It will taste bad if it is mixed.

Two olives are the most common way to serve martinis. 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 a smoother texture. There are many varieties of vermouths, but we recommend using one without added sugar. Cocktails can become too sweet with sugar.

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. Place in a chilled martini glasses and garnish with an olive.

Make a martini recipe using a shaker. Remember not to shake the mixture too much - only enough to combine all the ingredients.
