Martinis
I had a couple last night made with Ultimat vodka. Tiny splash of vermouth and then shaken til they were super cold.
I will also admit to having a couple of Vespers recently. 3 Measures Gordons gin, 1 measure vodka, half a measure of Lillet with a thin slice of lemon peel. Very good even if you run the risk of looking like a Bond fan-boy. Ian Fleming knew his way around a bar, that's a fact.
Anybody else like martinis?

Yes, as long as it is a martini.
Someone needs to slap these people that think anything with cranberry juice is somehow a martini.

Cheers, fellow Martini lovers.
I'm preferring Gin to Vodka lately but the Vesper works for me.
Anyone tried Cointreau rather than Lillet ?The white gleam of swords, not the black ink of books, clears doubts and uncertainties and bleak outlooks.

I'm the old fashioned fart that says it has to have gin to be a martini, but that's neither here nor there

I started with Vodka martinis, but I do like them with gin as well. Slightly dirty.
