I can’t believe we haven’t seen the classic Martini! Just gin or vodka and vermouth. Trivia alert! Bond took his with both gin and vodka. There are those that dispense with the vermouth, preferring them “dry”. Churchill said his preference was drinking a glass of cold gin while looking at a bottle of vermouth. Hitchcock prepared his with five parts gin and a quick glance at the vermouth bottle. General Patton suggested pointing the bottle in the direction of Italy.
I love this Dorothy Parker quote.
I like to have a martini,
Two at the very most.
After three I’m under the table,
After four I’m under my host!
