Dirty Martini
The Dirty Martini takes the classic Martini and gives it a savory, salty twist. Made with gin or vodka, dry vermouth, and a splash of olive brine, it’s a bracing, umami-rich cocktail beloved by those who like their drinks with a little edge. Served ice-cold and garnished with a green olive (or three), the Dirty Martini is bold, briny, and unapologetically grown-up. It’s not for everyone—but that’s part of the charm.
