Allow us to explain something in the interest of tradition and to pay homage to the virtues of a classic martini. Martinis can be simply defined as gin and vermouth mixed together. This is a ratio of 5 to 1. stir, not a shake. You can add an olive or two. If you’re like me, a twist is all you need. If you are unfamiliar with the liquor lexicon, the amount of vermouth in a martini will determine how dry it is. Vermouth is used less when mixing a martini that is drier.
