Teaching myself to make martinis...

And here's my first shot a classic vodka martini!

Wasn't easy to find smaller glasses (most martini glasses are too big, more fit for cosmos than classic cocktails). Found these at a vintage store by me.

Chill martini glass with some ice.

To a chilled shaker with ice add vodka or gin. I shake for a more "effervescent" martini or stir for a "smoother" one.

Take the glass, dump out the ice, and add some chilled vermouth. Pour and swirl.

Dump out the vermouth, add the contents of the shaker. I prefer olives. Enjoy!
