Martini
Cold, clean, uncompromising.
Gin and dry vermouth, stirred until ice-cold. The most elegant thing you can build with two ingredients — and a lesson in restraint.

The lesson
Dilution and temperature are ingredients too. The Martini teaches you that how you chill and stir matters as much as what you pour.
