The LAST Dirty Martini By , May 8, 2009 Drinks really are about their ingredients and subtle differences between flavors can make or break a drink.

Ingredients: - Hendricks Gin - Noilly Prat Original Dry Vermouth Instructions: Chill your gin for at least 24 hours before making the drink. It helps to keep your brine and vermouth in the refrigerator as well, so they do not warm up the drink as you’re building it. Build the drink in the glass. Martini glasses are traditional. I like using a coupe glass for a vintage presentation. Garnish with olives and toothpick. Give the drink at least three good stirs with the olive to mix the ingredients in the glass.
