The Perfect Martini
Some would say there is nothing more classic than a crisp martini as the perfect cocktail and we couldn’t agree more. Whether you prefer it shaken or stirred, dry or dirty, the martini offers a versatile platform for a truly classic drinking experience. We can’t help but love our latest obsession, the Elevated Craft Hybrid Cocktail Shaker.
We always opt for the classic shape with our glasses and these Riedel Martini Glasses couldn’t be more classic and impressive.
At its core, the classic martini is a combination of gin and dry vermouth, garnished with an olive or a lemon twist. The martini is cold, clear, and smooth, making it a perfect aperitif or companion to a refined evening. Cheers!
