How to Make a Classic Dirty Martini Cocktail
The Dirty Martini, or something resembling it, dates back to at least 1901, when Martinis featuring muddled olives were served at the Waldorf Astoria hotel. It's thought that American President, Franklin D. Roosevelt enjoyed these cocktails.
We recommend using Audemus Spirits' Umami Gin, which counts capers and parmesan amongst its botanicals, and really enhances the savoury qualities of this cocktail!

Bartender’s Top Tips Be sure to use olives stored in brine – the ones stored in oil make for a greasy and unpleasant Martini! Try a blue-cheese stuffed olive garnish to elevate the umami factor. |
