[QUOTE="adauria, post: 18181, member: 193"] Simple but perfect (though not a "perfect martini," per se, which is a different drink altogether): Martini chill shaker and martini glass pour 2.5 oz Bombay Sapphire or Tanqueray Ten gin into shaker over several ice cubes add 0.5 oz dry vermouth to shaker shake VIGOROUSLY strain drink from ice into cold martini glass garnish with 3 green olives on a tooth pick enjoy bliss And let's be clear: - I will permit your choice of gin - I will permit substitution of a lemon twist for the olives, or 5 olives instead of 3 - You can make bigger batches - they key is 5:1 ratio of gin to vermouth (any drier and why not just take chilled gin shots?) - A "vodka martini" is actually a "kangaroo" - Anything else served in a martini glass is a "cocktail" and NOT a martini, X-tini, or whatever -Andrew [/QUOTE]
