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.

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

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!
I was surprised how much I liked the traditional gin & olives version as well.
Funny, just made a martini inspired appetizer for a BBQ/pool party tonight that has soppressata, irish cheddar, a stuffed olives and finished with a hint of vermouth. Not sure how it's going to come out, but I like the individual ingredients.
