The Martini....a brilliant drink! Plymouth gin makes a brilliant martini....oh and james bond drinks a Vesper. Do your homework bartenders....a Vesper is 2 parts gin and 1 part vodka, and instead of vermouth it uses lillet, bond also has it with a twist of lemon and instead of 2 parts gin he has 3 parts Gordons gin and would prefer 1 part grain vodka instead of potato vodka. lets bring bartending back to its respectable days. DO YOUR HOMEWORK.....much love from australia, we do our homework!
@sompie13 That was only in Casino Royale . . . in every novel (and film adaptation) afterward, he drinks dry vodka and dry gin martinis . . . the Vesper is never mentioned again
Some cocktails (the martini in particular) are better stirred than shaken. Why? I dunno.
Oh yeah. 'Cos when you shake a cocktail you fill it full of air bubbles, shards of ice, over-dilution of water etc. That's fine for most cocktails, but for the simplest ones with the fewest ingredients (the martini in particular), the drink should be as brutal, as hard-hitting, as straight-up as possible. So stir gently for about 30 seconds for the best results.
Muddle olives gives the martini a lot more of a dirtier appearance and is a lot more salty, however the brine is enough for the flavour and still keeps that clean look to the martini
A sales manager got a complaint that his salesmen were returning from lunch drunk & stinking of gin. He told his people to switch to vodka martinis so they wouldnt stink of booze.
After a week he told his people to switch back to the gin martinis. He said he would rather have customers think his people were drunks instead of stupid.
it's not what you call a dirty martini dude..........it's a Gin Martini with olives as a garnish.....when u r makin' dirty martini first of all you have to muddle olives in a shaker with 1/4 oz of olive juice and then pour 2 oz of gin and a half ounce of dry vermouth.
@NilsBritney Its still a martini if you use vodka, its just called a vodka martini. I work in a bar (and have done for some time) and the most popular of the 2 is the vodka martini. I think its coz james bond drinks it.
the way he does it makes the ice melt wayyyy to much and dilutes the alcohol with too much water. just ruins the flavor. shaken is a better method. you never want to leave alcohol on ice for long
actually its the other way because of the shaking action. but i agree with you on the part of him diluting it too much, but i would say he stirred too much
You stir gin martinis, not too much or you will bruise the gin (over dilute it).
You shake (hard) vodka martinis, looking for ice chards & serve in a frozen glass.
Two totally different drinks, I like my vodka martinis slightly dirty with blue chesse oilves, gin (sapphire) clean & dry with anchovie stuffed olives.
@jamesypie69 I don't know anything about alcohol, but what's the difference? Is it that when it's shaken the ice will break and dilute the alcohol? :S
@jamesypie69 It doesn't matter in this case. The biggest reason that you don't shake a martini is so that you don't bruise the gin. However, the olive brine is gonna cloud it up anyway, so it's fine.
i like my martinis shaken not stirred

Should chill the glass first, with some water to aid the chilling. That glass is not well-chilled at all.
