The Deano Recipe
Surprisingly, Dean Martin wasn’t much of a drinker. But when he did, it was always an extremely dry gin martini served with a couple of bleu cheese stuffed olives, One Lucky Strike, and a pack of matches. You’ll get it no differently, pally. Though it’s hard to say which will go to your head faster, the gin or the Lucky.
