Acquired the taste for a good martini at about 40 years of age.
A friend of a friend learned how to make an excellent one from her grandfather.
Her recipe called for Bombay Sapphire w/ just a hint of vermouth. Shaken till very cold (you could see the tiny ice crystals). The secret ingredient was
anchovy-stuffed olives. I was skeptical, but it all worked together fabulously, and I loved the "comfortably numb" feeling it inspired.
My current favorite is Goose L'Orange or Hangar One Mandarin, shaken until very cold, and served up. I skip the olives with this one. A twist is unnecessary. The aroma is like drinking in an orange grove.
I can only have one, so i enjoy it slowly...

True. Can't beat good Vodka. One key thing to remember for a good Martini is use GOOD ice with no odor. If you ever made your own at home and didn't quite like it as much as the one at your favorite bar, then check your ice. Ice is a sponge for freezer odors.
Good vodka + good ice = great Martini

We had a martini party once. We broke a window in the house and almost crushed a baby sleeping on the floor.
That is when I found out anything served in a martini glass is a martini. My drunk wife just starting inventing drinks. We still talk about the triple nipple she created. Who knows what was in it, but it really messed some people up.
Never again! At least with Robert anyways. lol.

you know what they say about maritinis. They're kind of like womens breast,
1 is not enough and 3 is too many. :rollside:

Clean Ice, great advice.
I love to order martinis when were out, the sheet of cold that skims the cocktail is my favorite. I can't seem to master this at home. :mad:

Like I said. My drunk wife just started making drinks up. A little flashing, some alcohol, and martini glasses and viola, "The Triple Nipple."

I dunno what it's called, but this is what I created.
Pour enough Vodka for two in a shaker full of ice.
One capfull of sweet vermouth.
Squeeze a large lemon into shaker and shake.
Pour into glass and drink while preparing round two...
I don't drink 'em very often as they are dangerous, and only at home locked inside. :220v:

yeah...I wouldn't invite me either that was one hell of a night... by the way it was call triple nipple because she would raise her shirt and shake her boobs back and forth so hard as she was making the martini it looked like there were three nipples.:) at least that's how I remember it then I passed out
