Method

Preparation

1

Chill the Glass

Begin by chilling your martini glass. You can do this by filling it with ice water while you prepare the cocktail.

2

Mix the Ingredients

In a cocktail shaker, combine 2 oz of Revelton Vodka or J. Rieger's Gin and 0.5 oz of Dry Vermouth. If you prefer a dirty martini, add 0.5 oz of Olive Juice.

3

Shake or Stir

Fill the shaker with ice and either shake vigorously for about 15 seconds or stir gently for about 30 seconds, depending on your preference for a chilled or slightly diluted drink.

4

Strain into Glass

Empty the ice water from the chilled martini glass and strain the mixture from the shaker into the glass.

5

Garnish

Skewer two olives on a cocktail pick and place them in the drink as garnish.
