The Perfect Dirty Martini Recipe | Grey Goose Vodka
You can make this drink as dirty as you like by pouring the olive juice to your own taste. It may take a few rounds to find the perfect balance for you but it’s fun to experiment. As you try different brands of gin you’ll want to make adjustments as well.
The key to making a great dirty martini is to use high-end gin (or vodka if you prefer) and vermouth and add just enough olive juice to lightly flavor it. It’s very easy to make this cocktail too dirty so take it easy at first.
