Steps:
- Place the water, salt, red pepper flakes, peppercorns, garlic, rosemary, and thyme in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, then immediately remove the pan from the heat. Add the vermouth and olive oil and stir well. Let cool to room temperature. Stir in the olives and transfer to a container with a tight-fitting lid. Refrigerate until ready to use. NOTE: If you use large, firm, green olives-those that have a waxy look-you can make this recipe up to 1 week in advance. If you use softer green olives-those that look slightly shriveled, with papery-looking skin-make them no more than 24 hours in advance or they will plump up too much.

Steps:
- Shake or stir 1/2 cup vodka or gin and 1 1/2 teaspoons vermouth in an ice-filled shaker. Strain into a chilled martini glass and garnish with olives, caper berries, or onions. Repeat with remaining vodka or gin and vermouth.
Tips:
- Choose the right vermouth: Use a dry vermouth for a classic flavor or a sweet vermouth for a sweeter olive.
- Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs like thyme, rosemary, and oregano will infuse the olives with more flavor.
- Let the olives soak for at least 24 hours: The longer the olives soak, the more flavor they will absorb.
- Store the olives in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks: The olives will keep for up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator.
