A hastily written message on a post-it note
To Cecil,
For a Proper Martini, You will need;
-Ice. Lot’s of it.
-Properly chilled, stemmed martini glasses (your glasses should be in the freezer for a minimum of one hour prior to making the martini.)
-Vermouth
-A glass pitcher or metal shaker
-Garnish, be it olives, or lemon peel. These are the only things.
-And finally, Gin.
1. First, grab the vermouth out of the fridge. Take off the cap. Pour the vermouth into the cap. That’s all the vermouth you need.
2. Now, take the glass pitcher, or metal vessel, out of the freezer.
3. Put the ice in the container (a healthy handful of cubes) and then pour in the vermouth. You want not only to coat the bottom of the shaker/pitcher, but the ice as well. Give it a swirl, and then out it goes, right down the drain. not the ice, just the extra vermouth.
4. On to the gin, which should be kept in the freezer. Use two shots worth of it. That’s three ounces.
5. At this point, it depends what type of container is in use. If it’s a glass pitcher, you stir. If it’s a metal one, you swirl, in a semi-vigorous manner, but not violently.
6. Swirl it leisurely and wait a few minutes, preferably 3-5 and swirling it occasionally and allow the ice to melt slightly.
7. Get a nice item out to snack on. Can be done during the downtime in between step 7
8. Grab the olives out of the fridge. Take your toothpick and push out those nasty little red pimento buggers. place a single olive on a toothpick, set up two of those.
9. Strain the concoction into two chilled martini glasses, because it should always be made and consumed in good company. Place a n olive pierced toothpick in each glass.
10: Relax, unwind and enjoy.
