Classic Dry Gin Martini Cocktail Recipe

You are a talented bartender

Dude, you really know your job, it's the second time I saw you doing something in the most classical way! Honestly you are my favourite bartender for tutorial. I drink dry martini since kid and I hope you don't mind few pieces of advice: the secret is the temperature, personally holding the gin bottle in the freezer and the vermouth in the refrigerator makes a huge difference as the ice will melt much more slowly keeping it more dry.

Who doesn't love a good martini?! Cheers mate!

Gotta love the classics. Keep up the good work, Steve!

I loved this video so much that I have seen this might be like 100 times. And I’m still watching it. I would love to see some other combinations of this drink. And rest of the videos are also amazing. Thank you so much

I'm a martini drinker and I think this is a great recipe, a slight but significant improvement to the recipe I have been using for some time now. Thank you very much.

Simple and easy, just made myself the best martini I've ever had using this vid, cheers!

Lovely video! Thank you for taking the time to put this one together. Always loved the classic drinks and you have inspired me to try out the martini again. Cheers!

Thank You My Man! That Martini Looks Fantastic

HI Steve, remember when I was funning you about being such a good bartender but not American. I wasn't serious as you knew. BUT, if you serve a mini martini like that in USA, be sure you know where the back door is. LOL Love the channel.

I learned a lot from you bro.,thanks a lot.

Well done. What I learned is always double strain if the glass has no ice

I love martinis. when i make mine at home i dont measure. i just know the amts lol

Very tasty.

Thanks for this! Very helpful 😘

brilliant mate

cheers Steve love a dry martini like dean Martin mate

Bang 3 of these and your 🚀 🌕

Or...2 shots of Gin, a splash of dry white Vermouth over ice. Add an olive. 3 shots will get you bigger tips!🙂

Hello Steve I think u forgot to add Vermouth u just kept it aside u didn't add it..

Did you just throw away the Vermouth ?

Extra credit for using a traditional size cocktail glass and not one of those gargantuan ones you see all over.

Thanks you for excellent..

2:15 😱😱😱😱😱😱wdf

Looking nice.

No bitters?

Do you ever do olives and lemon twist together?

My rule of thumb for youtube bartender channels - can they make a proper dry martini? Yay, subscribe. Nay, back to vermouth town buddy... Subscribed! :)

5:1 is my preference. Otherwise I'll just sip on some gin

Wf! And what happened with the Vermouth?🤣🙄

nice

How about Hendricks, lemon or lime?

Thanks for this! Am going to make a martini now. Is it just a myth that a good is martini is shaken and not stirred? I imagine the former gets a colder drink.

what is that giant bug or ghost at 2:15???!!!???

Nice 😃👌 cheers

How about queen bee cocktail ?

Why do you cost the ice?

what about the bitters?

this is just pure gin or am i wrong? why throw the vermout away?

You put the vermouth aside but never used it? What did I miss?

Anyone else see that at 2:16? 👀

Can you do a dirty martaini

So, you are drinking straight gin??

AND IF YOU HAVE BLUE CHEESE OLIVES, PUT TWO OR THREE AND IT WILL TURN IT INTO A FANTASTIC MARTINI.

Does the cat get to sample?

To much work. The easy way: Keep your Gin in the freezer. Fill your martini glass with cold water, empty it and put it in the freezer. You should have 3-4 of them in there for each drinker. Put your vermouth in the refrigerator. If you are cheap, pour some vermouth in a shotglass. You do not need much of it. After about one hour, take out your martini glass, slam some vermouth in it, roll the glass and let the vermouth cover the inside of the glass, and empty the glass. If cheap, back into the shot glass. You can reuse that shit. Now fill the marini glass with gin. Twist some lemon over it, do not throw compost material in your drink, just twist over. Get those oil out there. Drink. Later in the evening, the gin do not need to be that cold, just leave the bottle on the table. You dont really need that lemon thing, and the gin will be perfectly happy if you show it a picture of a bottle of vermouth. Skål!

I was very impressed w your other cocktails but your martini just isn't right 1) This is not classic (ratio is wrong) 2) This is bone dry, not dry, (you discarded the vermouth) Bartenders usually do it your way when vermouth has been in the back storage for months and isn't fresh (it's a wine after all). Use fresh vermouth. Be proud of it. Go 3:1, or 5:1, if you like it drier

And where your vermoth broh

where vermouth gone

Shaken not stirred!

They didn't taste as good as what I'd imagine in my mind, whenever I saw someone else ( like James Bond) drinking one..

Nope...

Shaken, not stirred.

I don’t care for your saying, “about” when pouring the liquids.
