Martini
23:32

I made one.

I have developed a taste for them. Hendrick's has a nice floral flavor; do try it. It also makes a fine gin & tonic.

I store the gin and a couple of glasses in my freezer. Rather than the IBA dry martini recipe, I've made the last couple like this:

• Get your vermouth.
• Retrieve gin and appropriate number of glasses from freezer.
• Pour a smidge of the vermouth into the glass; swirl.
• Pour sufficient gin into the glass. Swirl a bit more.
• Replace gin and fresh glasses in freezer.
• Plunk in a couple of olives.
• Enjoy.

For a very different gin, try Blade Gin; its flavor is spicy rather than juniper.
