    Grape juice ruins the Vodka. Vodka and purple food coloring is the way to go.

    Vodka is a drink for alcoholic house wives and red bastard commies.
    Funny.

    Vodka isn't a drink though. It's just the fuel for many a good drink. Do you order a bloody Mary/Caeser or a god damned bloody Maria? Gross.
    James Bond really screwed up American culture. Most people think a martini is made with vodka. Christ.
    Gin martini stirred, straight up unless the vermouth is fresh then it can be dry. Two olives, optionally served dirty if the gin is cheap. Onions acceptable if your Polish.

    Anything else is twash.
    This is mostly correct. If the vermouth is fresh then it needs to be up with a 2 to 1 or 3 to 1 ratio. Dirty martinis are never permissible.

    Also, onions are just as good as olives. Sometimes I like one of each.
    That much vermouth, even fresh, means you no longer taste the botanicals of the gin, which is the entire point of stirring it instead of shaking, not to destroy the delicate flavors.

    Maybe in the same category as dirty, acceptable for cheap gin, definitely NOT acceptable for top shelf stuff, otherwise you might as well order cheaper gin.

    Strong disagree. Fresh, top shelf vermouth is amazing and doesn't take away from the gin at all at 3 to 1.

    @Dennis_DeYoung is rolling over in his grave at this fresh vermouth bashing.

    The Poles are long tim American frens and allies while also making good vodka.
    True. And I'm married to a Pollock.

    Vodka's only purpose is Bloody Mary's (or Caesars hi @Canadawg ) or White Russians. Screwdrivers are fine is you're really hungover.

    Otherwise, you're an alcoholic housewife.
    I remember my alcoholic housewife phase.
    I can picture you drinking vodka and cran listening to Sonos.
    And what is wrong with Sonos?

    Sonos does not produce high fidelity sound.

    How many vodka martinis do you like before biting the pillow, chief?

    I can’t stand the taste of gin. I grew up in a house with a bunch of juniper bushes that my brothers and I constantly had to fetch our baseballs out of, so I hate the smell and taste.
