Martini Recipe

  1. In a mixing glass, combine 60ml dry gin and 10ml dry vermouth.
  2. Fill with ice and stir gently until chilled.
  3. Strain into a chilled martini glass and garnish with an olive or a lemon twist.

Stirring instead of shaking preserves the clarity and balance of a true dry martini.

Martini Taste

The first sip of a Martini hits you with the juniper notes of gin, followed by subtle herbal undertones from the vermouth. The finish is dry and clean, with olives adding a briny complexity.

Recommended for those who enjoy strong, dry cocktails and want to taste gin in its purest form. If sweet cocktails aren't your style, Martini is an excellent choice.

Martini History

The Martini's origins trace back to the late 19th century. While its exact origin is unclear, theories suggest it came from Martinez, California, or was named after the Italian vermouth company Martini & Rossi.

In the 20th century, the Martini gained worldwide fame through Hollywood and James Bond films. The iconic phrase "shaken, not stirred" became synonymous with the cocktail.
