3 Classic Ways to Make a Martini

In cocktail terms the word "perfect" usually means that the drink contains equal parts dry and sweet vermouth. That's exactly what you get in the perfect martini and it's a fantastic drink for anyone who loves gin.

This recipe is the “perfect” version of the classic gin martini. You can also mix a perfect Manhattan while other “perfect” cocktails go by other names such as the affinity for scotch. And yet the perfect gin martini is the most popular of them all. It’s an ideal drink before dinner or anytime you want to celebrate that perfect combination of gin and vermouth.

"The Perfect Martini is often confused with a really well-made Martini. I was asked to make a guest "The Perfect Martini" and it was sent back. This recipe could do something different. It really is a perfect cocktail in name and function. I'm going to have to order one myself." —Sean Johnson
