So, what is a Martini? It’s dead simple. Two parts gin (or vodka, we’ll get there) and one part dry vermouth. That’s it. No fruit juice. No fancy syrups. Just booze and a whisper of wine.
You stir it with ice until it’s brutally cold. Then you strain it into a stemmed glass with legs you can practically see through. The glass is called a "Martini glass." It’s iconic. It’s also utterly impractical. One strong breeze and you’re wearing your dignity on the floor.
