Discover the Martini, an iconic cocktail of elegance and strength – a classic that should be enjoyed with respect.
How To Make It
Place the cocktail glass and stirring glass in the freezer three hours beforehand to chill. Martini recipes are very personal – the amount of vermouth used is open to debate – but a standard 5:1 formula is generally accepted as the best. However this is a wet recipe, calling for an increase in vermouth which takes some of the strength away and is best enjoyed in the early evening.
Ingredients
- 60ml vodka
- 30ml dry vermouth
- cubed ice
- lemon twist or olives
Equipment
- chilled martini glass
- mixing glass
- shot measure
- hawthorne strainer
- bar spoon
Method
- Pour the vodka and vermouth into the chilled stirring glass.
- Fill the stirring glass half with ice.
- Stir the liquid for at least 3 minutes. This doesn’t have to be constant stirring but the liquid needs enough time with the ice to reduce the temperature.
- Strain into the chilled Martini glass.
- Garnish with a lemon twist or olives.
