How To

How to make a delicious martini

A martini can be made from gin or vodka, vermouth, and water. Before you serve, mix all the ingredients well. The chilled glass is preferred. It should be enjoyed straight up. It will taste bad if it is mixed.

Two olives are the most common way to serve martinis. If you wish to add more flavor to your drink, you can put olive brine around the rim.

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 varieties of vermouths, but we recommend using one without added sugar. Cocktails that contain sugar are too sweet.

To make a martini, add 2 ounces of dry vodka to a shaker. 1 ounce vodka is added. Stir vigorously until combined. Put the mixture in a chilled martini cup and garnish it with an olive.

The same steps are required to make a martini in a shaker. Be careful not to stir the mixture too much. Only enough is needed to combine all of the ingredients.
