welcome to craft cocktail I'm Derek that's Eve we're making a gin martini or also known as the martini before the vodka for the 430's martini usually thirty around 30 vodka kind of got a big thing and everybody wanted vodka and then now you have to specify you want a vodka martini or gin martini most people think the vodka martini is the original martini because it's for the popular one for so long yeah people are often drunk this case we're here to correct you this is two and a half ounces of London Dry Gin a half ounce of dry vermouth and optionally and I'm going to do it one dash of orange bitters Cragen's reason reason we're using rage Gary Gary is the master these these are fairly affordable so they kind of fit into every type of cocktail they're pretty widely available they're better than the ah mr. bitters in my personal opinion okay so some of the more popular orange bitters is either or there's this so there's foodies just fees learning how or bitter truth Dylan recipes Scrappy's tons of different video I would i usually would pick a Scrappy's but i wanted to kind of I'm using I guess a more expensive gin I don't really know we want it for this type of drink you want to use a good gin because that is what's really going to get you're going to get gin in this drink so we want to know what it tastes like it's almost all gym so again want something's going to stand out there you're going to like right just stir drink you're going to cert usually I my recommendation is 45 seconds but I often don't count sometimes I touch it you don't enough you kind of figure out how cold is supposed to be a but sometimes you can see the condensation build-up on the side yeah certain glass or you just feel it you can feel a hold of it right but I always tell people 45 seconds if you download the e-book a home cocktail menu you will see that I say the 30 to 45 seconds in this specific case I set a 30 seconds and then use a tulip strainer or Hoffmann or if you don't have it you little strainer to strain this out don't water your way to get a special strainer just for this but I would get the special glass glass doing this in one of the things I'd like to I have a problem dealing with is whenever Ernest Hemingway comes up with with a recipe recommendation which is one of these are one of the drinks that he kinda likes Ernest Hemingway drank heavy and drink along drinks strong there's a reason they had to make a Hemingway daiquiri because Hemingway's drink was just a little bit bored to public you could use a garnish if you all of this something you see nowadays if you did onions you'd have a Gibson there are different variations to this depending on what type of vermouth you use you're going to add the very popular they can be dirty dirty martini and add it to the Vespers the kangaroo martini is what is a if you replace the Jim of the vodka now we call it a vodka martini but it really should just be a kangaroo Markey I think those days have gone people we're not need eighteen hundred's anymore there's no gold rushes so this is what if you want to understand the reference between the gold rush in 1800 you go to home game on your calm in Tel Aviv look it something else that there's all this stuff we're looking at it right now it doesn't move most information information is good if you're into the type of history and stuff that goes just beyond the recipe gives you an appreciation for why you're drinking this drink other other than falling flat on your face is this drinks going to knock you out it's not a bad drink oh i like the ratio with the different moods in the gym you know what really kind of helped with just that one - orange bitters because this we've had this we've done tests of these drinks as i was making them and it was it was from it's got a little bit of the orange on the back they kind of coach your mouth when you're done with the set oh yeah a lot of gin it's a good drink to drink slowly Oh George in it's a good drink to drink to enjoy your gin with yeah anything with the word martini well okay that's not true any one of the martinis that are kind of the classics from martinis to kangaroos in Vespers to the dirties and the cleans and whatever perfect they're all pretty fun when you go to a restaurant today and you order a martini like a pomegranate ami or whatever or special my baby probably more sugar yeah so you're probably not going to it's still a lot of spirit but you probably are going to get his destroy as you would drink something like this so take these slow and sip it like it's the 1800s I presume they're slipping sip it slow hope so that my friends Oh what you want to do is click the button click the little link below it's a little book it's an e-book goes to home cocktail menu calm get you all 15 of the gin recipes that fit this series of cocktails subscribe like to the show if you haven't already subscribed like to it that's how we suggest you make a gin martini
