This version of the Dirty Martini adds the "dirty" olive juice, along with the traditional dry vermouth, to the gin or vodka martini.
Ingredients:
Ice (enough to fill shaker about 3/4 full)
Splash of olive juice
Splash of dry vermouth
1-1/2 ounces gin or vodka
Olives (for garnish)
Fill a shaker with ice. Add the olive juice, the vermouth, and the gin or vodka. Stir or swirl lightly, and then strain into a martini glass. (Note: Can also be served in a rocks glass filled with ice, if desired.) Garnish with the olives.
