Foodie Byte: This is a traditional martini with only two ingredients. You can be flexible, however, adding sweet vermouth, or adding a pearl onion or a lemon twist instead of the olive.
Preparation
- Note: Serve in a small martini glass and put leftovers in a rocks glass.
- Fill a martini glass with water and large ice cubes (enough to keep it cold while mixing drink).
- Pour vermouth and gin into a mixing glass and stir.
- Pour ice and water out of martini glass. Pour martini from mixing glass into martini glass.
- Yield: 1 drink
