The smoked olives will give this a really unique, sophisticated flavor compared to a standard dirty martini. Enjoy!
Ingredients
2.5 oz vodka (chilled)
0.5 oz dry vermouth
0.5-0.75 oz olive brine (adjust to taste)
Ice
Smoked olives for garnish
Directions
Fill a mixing glass with ice.
Pour in the vodka, vermouth, and olive brine.
Stir well for about 30 seconds until very cold (stirring rather than shaking keeps it crystal clear).
Strain into a chilled martini glass.
Garnish with 2-3 smoked olives on a cocktail pick.
Tips: Adjust the “dirtiness” by adding more or less brine to your preference. Make sure everything is well-chilled before mixing for the best martini. Some people prefer shaking for a slightly more cloudy, diluted martini – it’s up to your preference!
Nada’s Tips & Tricks: If you’re a martini-lover, this twist is amazing. Play around with the vodka and vermouth portions along with the olive brine until you come up with the concoction perfect for you.
