I have tried to like martinis so many times and they just always felt like Gin with nasty added. That is, until I was taught: #1 - Vermouth goes bad (only use fresh) #2 - When you use fresh vermouth (and a brand you actually like, there's a lot of variety) you can use much more of it, even up to 1:1 however, 2:1 would be the most long-standing ratio. Like, a full oz of vermouth was normal for about a century, until the 70s nightclub/disco scene crapified pretty much all of the craft cocktail industry. #3 - They originally called for orange bitters because the martini is a cousin of the manhatten. I immediately went and bought some fresh Dolin dry and Regan's orange bitters and stirred up the following: 2 oz Beefeater 1 oz Dolin 2 dashes Regan's Lemon twist expressed on top. OH. MY. WORD. The Martini is now in my top 5 favorite cocktails. Drink what you like, but try the old school way, it's so much more balanced and interesting (and the old recipe is taking over the industry again, thank God)

God bless! I'm so glad you're one of the good ones who realised that a Martini isn't supposed to be 3 oz of vodka with a drop of vermouth, and that the vermouth is an integral part of it. And extra bonus points for knowing that the orange bitters make a world of difference! I'm crying happy bartender tears.

Thanks so much for the info. You´re spot on it. The adding of orange bitters makes it more tasteful and interesting. My personal choice is 3 oz. of Martin Miller´s or No.3 Gin, 1/2 oz. of Carpano Dry Vermouth, 2 dashes of Angostura orange bitters. Stir it for 30 seconds, then pour it in a chilled glass, add an olive and a twist of lemon inside, after squeezing the essential oils from the lemon all over the glass. Next thing I will do is try it with Beefeater Gin. Greetings from Ecuador.

I just watched Anders Erikson's channel and he makes the 2:1 ratio you describe. I've been watching many gin martini videos because I want to try to make one. I decided Anders was the best, and it's very similar to yours, except he expresses the lemon and tosses it out, and adds a green olive. I actually bought Beefeater and Dolin, as well. Can't wait to try one!

I had the auto generated English translator on from another video, I have to say the “translation” is hilarious. I’m not trying to take away from a master martini, but let’s just say the ingredients take on a whole new meaning “translated”.

Seems to me that he builds every single drink he makes and says that it doesn't need any shaking or stirring because he keeps the spirits in the freezer and they're already cold. Well what about the dilution?

@jpwjr1199 3 жыл бұрын

Gin doesn't dilute in a freezer. It doesn't nor should it freeze. A frig should be fine, but it should not freeze if the gin is real. Nor should vermouth. So where's the problem?

@LukeWalstead 3 жыл бұрын

@@jpwjr1199 bro... lol,smh - the point is that most cocktails are intended to be diluted with water, usually in the form of ice that melts during stirring or shaking. If you don't perform either of those actions because you add pre-chilled liquor to the glass and therefore don't see shaking or stirring as necessary, you won't be adding any additional water to the cocktail. Hence the original question "What about dilution?" Now, if a bartender or a customer prefers the flavor of a cocktail without any water dilution, this technique of using pre-chilled liquor (without adding water through mixing or shaking) is not a problem. However, most people prefer some dilution. So if one is going to utilize this technique, especially in a professional setting, it would be advisable to have a method of adding water dilution to the cocktail since this technique bypasses the traditional methods of doing so.

The reason people drink Martinis is that they are too embarrassed to order a glass of gin.

I hope the Gin had at least been sitting in the fridge if not in the freezer! Room temp gin doesn't cut the mustard with me.

With respect, this isn’t much of a Martini. No dilution - the gin wasn’t even frozen although he talked about it - and a few dashes of vermouth? It’s a warm slug of gin served in a cold glass. No thank you.

@LukeWalstead 3 жыл бұрын

Very blunt opinion... but I completely agree. The Martini is the most bastardized and abused cocktail of all time.

@jer3887 2 жыл бұрын

I was thinking the same thing.... the dilution makes a big difference. Maybe people that LOVE gin would like this. I like gin, but not on it's own, and even a little vermouth won't make me like it.
