I love downing the occational, OK no so occational, Martini.  I am curious if
there are any others on the echo who would like to share their favorite recipe.

I am partial to the Classic Gin Martini.  

I don't have a fancy shaker.. I keep a large glass in the freeze that I use for
mixing..  I also keep a couple of cocktail glasses in the freezer too.  No
matter what recipe you use to make your martini.. it should be served cold..
very cold!  Oh.. I also keep my gin in the freezer too!

1. Place a few ice cubes in the mixing class.
2. Add a splash of Dry Vermouth (no more than 1/2 oz.. I use less)
 2.a Swirl around for a few seconds.
3. 3 or 4 oz of Gin.. I am cheap and usually drink McCormicks Gin
 3.a Swirl around for a second or two.
4. Strain into Cocktail Glass (I use my fingers to hold back the ice).
5. Add Garnish.. A Couple of large olives, or a twist of olive peel.

Alternative.. Dirty Martini.. add a splash of olive jar juice to the mix.

Enjoy...
