The Naught Classic Dry Martini
The classic dry martini is a timeless and iconic cocktail that epitomises sophistication and elegance. Composed of just two primary ingredients, gin and vermouth, this drink is renowned for its simplicity and balance.
Typically served in a chilled, stemmed martini glass, the martini exudes a sense of refinement, with its crystal-clear appearance and garnish options ranging from a twist of lemon to a plump green olive. Its precise preparation, often involving a gentle stir or shake, ensures the perfect chill and dilution, resulting in a drink that’s as smooth as it is strong.
The martini has been a beloved fixture in cocktail culture for generations, celebrated by James Bond and countless other enthusiasts, making it an enduring symbol of sophistication in the world of mixology.
