Martinis are bound to kick up strong opinions that tend to intensify as more martinis are consumed. Gin versus vodka. Shaken versus stirred. Dirty? How dirty? Olives, lemon twist or both? This batched recipe makes the biggest decisions for you: Gin - the spirit of choice - is paired with vermouth in equal measure, a ratio that means you and your guests can and should pour freely. From there, the drinker has full control to dirty and garnish to their heart's content.

Yield 4 martinis

Number Of Ingredients 3

6 ounces gin
6 ounces dry vermouth
Lemon twist or olives, for garnish

Steps:

  • Stir together the gin and vermouth in a small pitcher or measuring cup. Pour half the mixture into a cocktail shaker filled with ice and shake vigorously. Strain into 2 martini glasses and garnish with a lemon twist or an olive. Repeat with the remaining gin and vermouth to make 2 more martinis.

Tips:

  • Chill your glass: To achieve the perfect martini, it's important to chill the glass beforehand. This will help keep the drink cold and prevent it from diluting too quickly.
  • Use high-quality ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly impact the taste of your martini. Opt for top-shelf gin and vermouth, as well as fresh lemon juice.
  • Measure your ingredients accurately: A good martini is all about balance. Be sure to measure your ingredients accurately to ensure the perfect ratio of gin, vermouth, and lemon juice.
  • Stir, don't shake: Stirring your martini is the preferred method, as shaking can bruise the gin and vermouth, resulting in a cloudy drink.
  • Garnish with a twist of lemon: The classic garnish for a martini is a twist of lemon. This adds a pop of color and a hint of citrus flavor.
