Dirty Martini
Wow, it has been a long work week and I still have one more day to go! It's hard getting back into the swing of things after vacation and holidays. We were suppose to have a work Happy Hour tonight but it was cancelled because of the Arctic Blast Houston is about to receive.
Dirty Martini
Vodka
Dry vermouth
Olives
Olive juice
It's best if you have a chilled martini glass. Douse it with water and put in the freezer for about five minutes to chill it up.
Fill a shaker with crushed ice. "Wash" the ice by pouring in a very small amount of dry vermouth, shake it, and drain (for an even drier martini gargle with the vermouth, spit it out, and blow into the shaker). Pour into the shaker about 2-2 1/2 ounces of vodka and about 1/2 to 3/4 of an ounce of olive juice (This is to taste and I like it DIRTY.) Shake and let set for about 20 seconds then pour into your frosty martini glass.
