Cocktails and Records

The Martinez cocktail is yet another nice twist on the martini that I’ve recently discovered. I think that it might even be better than the Bijou I posted a couple of weeks back.

The Martinez

- 3/4 oz dry vermouth
- dash orange bitters
- dash triple sec
- 1 1/2 oz gin

Stir well in a mixing glass filled with ice cubes, and strain into a martini glass. If you’ve got any lemons to hand, squeeze a slice over and use as garnish.

Goes particularly well with Dean Martin, Chris Montez and Martin Denny records…
