Prepare a sea salt solution in advance by dissolving 1 teaspoon of sea salt in 2 tablespoons of warm water. Allow it to cool and store it in a dropper bottle (optional).
To infuse the kelp into the simple syrup, steep a small piece of dried kelp in 1/2 cup of warm simple syrup for 30 minutes, then strain.
Fill a mixing glass with 1 cup of ice cubes.
Add 2 ounces of gin, 0.5 ounces of dry vermouth, 0.25 ounces of kelp-infused simple syrup, and 2 drops of the sea salt solution to the mixing glass.
Stir the mixture for about 30 seconds to chill and combine all flavors.
Strain the martini into a chilled martini glass.
Garnish with a lemon twist by carefully peeling a strip of lemon zest, twisting it to release essential oils, and placing it on the rim or into the glass.
Serve immediately and enjoy your 'Martini by the Sea'!
