To complete this How-To you will need: 2 1/2 oz. gin (or vodka) Ice 1/2 oz. dry vermouth Small, chilled olives with no pimento A mixing glass A cocktail strainer A clean napkin or cloth A martini glass A long spoon And a toothpick Step 1: Chill glass Chill the martini glass by filling it with ice and water and set it aside. Tip: Martinis should be very cold—storing your martini and mixing glass in the freezer will keep your finished drink even cooler, longer. Step 2: Fill with ice Fill the mixing glass with ice.
