For starters, a true martini uses gin, not vodka.

Beyond that, it is up to the bartender or whoever as to what kind of vodka you use for a vodka martini. That said, plain vodka appears to be most common.

What is the best martini?

A classic martini is made with vodka or gin. Lets say we're using vodka. Grab a glass and fill it with ice, add 10ml of dry vermouth and swill it around the glass, as to cover all of the ice, then pour out the excess vermouth. Add 75ml of good vodka, like ketel one or grey goose, then stir with a spoon until the top of the liquid reaches the top of the ice. Then serve with three olives on a cocktail stick, or alternatively you can use a twist of lemon peel. My preferred martini however is a "dirty" martini. This is made with 75ml of your good vodka, 5ml of dry vermouth, 5-10ml of the brine from the olive jar, and chuck a couple of olives in there as well. Lightly shake it up and double strain through a sieve or tea strainer into you martini glass. Serve with three olives on a cocktail stick. Just replace vodka for gin if you a gin martini.

What is the best martini recipe?

There are two styles or types of gin: * Dutch/Holland/Genever/Schiedam * English/American/London Dry The gins that fall under the first category (Dutch/Holland/Genever/Schiedam) are full bodied, hugh, big flavored gins. These gins tend to be complex and have a malty aroma and taste. While gins in the second category (English/ American/London Dry) are considerably lighter in flavor and body. However they are more aromatic than the first group, generally more aromas of juniper, orange, lemon, anise and less malty aromas.


What's a good recipe for a chocolate martini?

Hershey WallbangerGood martinis come in only one flavor and in one color: gin and white, respectively. James Bond glamorized the "shaken, not stirred" vodka martini, but that concoction is as much a real martini as 007 was a real spy. So drink these alcoholic Shirley Temples if you must, but at least avoid painting a mustache on the Mona Lisa by calling them martinis. (Robert Benchley once observed that the perfect martini was "three parts gin, and enough vermouth to take away that ghastly watery look.")Try this recipe:2 parts dark crème de cacao1 part vodka... and, just to make it interesting, perhaps 1 part Chambord.Shake it with ice, strain and serve. (A lump of bubble gum would be an appropriate garnish, or maybe use a Tootsie Roll as a swizzle stick.)Lady Godiva Chocolate Martini(courtesy of Martiniart.com)This wonderful chocolate martini is well worth the investment in the fine ingredients. What a wondefully sinful way to excite a martini glass!Ingredients2 ounces of Godiva Dark Chocolate liqueur2 ounces of Creme de Cacao1 ounce of half-and-half2 ounces of freezing Goldenbarr Chocolate vodka1 tablespoon of shaved white chocolate2 well chilled, classy looking martini glassesThe mixCombine the Godiva Chocolate liqueur, Creme de Cacao, and Goldenbarr Chocolate vodka into a cocktail shaker half full of cracked ice.Shake for one full minute.Add the half-and-half to the shaker and gently swirl (circular motion).Strain your fine chocolate creation into your martini glasses.Top each martini with shaved chocolate.You'll be in chocolate heaven.Although I didn't specify it in the recipe, the presence of a beautiful gal with flowing blonde hair on a white stallion will only serve to make this martini recipe even better!It's the only chocolate martini recipe we use in our bar...it's wonderful!
