Preparation

1. Chill the Glass

Before you begin mixing, place your martini glass in the freezer for about 10-15 minutes to chill it thoroughly.

2. Combine Ingredients

In a cocktail shaker, combine 2 oz of gin or vodka and 0.5 oz of dry vermouth. Adjust the vermouth to your taste preference.

3. Shake or Stir

Fill the shaker with ice and either shake vigorously for a well-mixed drink or stir gently for a smoother texture. Shake for about 15 seconds or stir for about 30 seconds.

4. Strain the Mixture

Remove the martini glass from the freezer and strain the mixed drink into the glass using a cocktail strainer.

5. Add Garnish

Garnish your martini with a single olive placed on a cocktail pick or float it directly in the drink.
