Ingredients

• 2.5 oz Gin (or Vodka)
• 0.5 oz Dry Vermouth
• 1 cup Ice Cubes
• 1 piece Lemon Twist or Green Olive

Directions

Step 1

Chill a martini glass by filling it with ice water and setting it aside while you prepare the drink.

Fill a mixing glass or shaker with 1 cup of ice cubes.

Add 2.5 oz of gin (or vodka) to the mixing glass.

Pour 0.5 oz of dry vermouth into the glass.

Stir the mixture with a bar spoon for about 15-20 seconds, or until thoroughly chilled. Alternatively, shake vigorously if you prefer a 'shaken' martini.

Step 6

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