Maritime Martini
Maritime Martini Instructions
The Maritime Martini is a classic cocktail that brings together the flavors of gin and vermouth for a sophisticated and refreshing drink. This cocktail is perfect for those who enjoy a martini but want a little something extra.
To make a Maritime Martini, start by filling a mixing glass with ice. Add 2 ounces of gin and 1 ounce of dry vermouth. Stir well to combine and chill the mixture. Strain the cocktail into a chilled martini glass.
The Maritime Martini is traditionally garnished with a lemon twist or an olive. To garnish with a lemon twist, use a knife or a citrus peeler to remove a thin strip of lemon peel. Twist the peel over the cocktail to release the oils and then drop it into the drink.
If you prefer an olive garnish, simply drop a pitted green olive or two into the cocktail. Some people also like to add a splash of olive brine for a dirty martini variation.
Enjoy the Maritime Martini as a pre-dinner drink or as a nightcap. Its crisp and herbal flavors make it a versatile choice for any occasion. Cheers!
Best served in a Cocktail Glass.
