Fill a shaker with ice. Pour a measure of dry vermouth over the ice. Turn the shaker gently a few times so as to cover each ice cube with a layer of vermouth. Dispose of excess vermouth. Fill with preferred amount of gin. Shake very well. Pour into a cocktail glass and leave for a minute to allow the ice crystals to clear. Garnish with an olive or a lemon twist.
