The traditional Martini connoisseur will tell you that this variation of the Martini is anything but "perfect" but the name is what it is. However, this is a very good drink and a nice alternative for any Martini lover when they want something just a touch sweeter. Perfect Martinis vary from classic Martinis by using equal amounts of dry and sweet vermouths.
Ingredients:
- 2 oz gin
- 1/2 oz dry vermouth
- 1/2 oz sweet vermouth
- green olives or lemon twist for garnish
Preparation:
- Pour the ingredients into a mixing glass with ice cubes.
- Stir well.
- Strain into a chilled cocktail glass.
- Garnish with the olive or lemon twist.
