Vodka Martini
Vodka and dry vermouth, stirred. Dry means less vermouth, not none.
A double scales every liquid. Garnish stays one. Open Double to see the pour.
The pour
One drink. Martini · 6–8 oz. Ice: none in the glass.
Vodka
2½ oz
Dry vermouth
½ oz
How
- Stir with ice 20–30 seconds. Strain into a chilled glass. Garnish.
Garnish
Lemon twist or three olives. Pick one language.
Tips
- Ketel One or Belvedere. Grey Goose if that is the bottle.
- Dirty: add ¼ oz olive brine and olives. Start there.
The double
5 oz vodka and 1 oz vermouth in a wine glass. Still one garnish. This is a lot of vodka — say so.
Sour and stirred rule: every liquid × 2, garnish × 1, bigger glass.
