How To Make An Extra Dry Martini.
martini MisterConnoisseurs have demonstrated ever-more creative ways of making the martini drier: pouring in the vermouth, then pouring it out again before adding the gin, holding the vermouth bottle next to the glass so a few carefully controlled "fumes" could waft their way into the cocktail. Winston Churchill would pour chilled gin into a chilled glass, and then simply dart a glance at a bottle of vermouth across the room.

The driest martini requires anywhere from eight to 15 parts gin or vodka to just one part vermouth, depending on the bartender and individual taste. In fact, some New York bartenders keep their vermouth in an atomizer, so they can spray a martini glass with the merest hint of vermouth a silver-finished stainless-steel refillable canister with an ultra-fine atomizer.

Brasserie
Postmodern Martini.
New York's Brasserie has a sleek, minimalist and futuristic interior, with translucent green tables, bare walls, a glass staircase and a backlit bar. Fifteen video screens broadcast images of incoming diners to create a voyeuristic effect. Bartenders use the Martini Mister for the house specialty drink called -- what else? -- the Brasserie Martini:
  • 3 ounces Grey Goose
         Vodka or Citadel Gin
  • Spray of Tio Pepe
  • Bleu Cheese-Stuffed
         Olive
  • Their secret is a clever invention called the Martini Mister, a silver-finished stainless-steel refillable canister with an ultra-fine atomizer. You can keep one at your home bar, or carry in your pocket or purse. It makes a perfect travel companion and a great conversation piece. Dressed-up in a formal black pouch for elegant gifting.
