Ep. 10: The O.G. - The Martini and Passion Fruit Vanilla Martini

In this episode we make the OG Martini, but in this case the OG refers to “Original Gin”. Jules puts a passion fruit and infused vanilla vodka spin on it, then Brad gives us the backstory on the history of the classic Martini. The Martini Remember - the ratio of Gin to Vermouth is 2 parts to 1 part 3 oz of Gin (Plymouth or your favorite London Dry) 1½ oz dry vermouth (Dolin or Nolly Pratt) Add ingredients to mixing glass and stir (with bar spoon) for 30 seconds with large chunks of ice (if you have it) Place hawthorn strainer on top of mixing glass and pour into chilled martini glass Garnish with lemon twist, olives, or a cocktail onion (and call it a “Gibson”) Passion Fruit Vanilla Martini  1.5 oz Vanilla vodka ¾ oz Passion fruit liqueur 1 oz Passion fruit puree ½ oz Vanilla syrup (1 cup water + 1 cup Sugar + stir in 1 tbsp vanilla extract) ½ oz Lime juice Small glass of Prosecco or chilled champagne Ice Add everything but prosecco or champagne to shaker Double strain into a chilled coupe glass Serve with a glass of chilled prosecco or champagne  Tip: How to order a Martini at the bar  The Art of Drinking IG: @theartofdrinkingpodcast  Jules IG: @join_jules TikTok: @join_jules  Website: joinjules.com Brad  IG: @cigarsnvino This is a Redd Rock Music Podcast IG: @reddrockmusic www.reddrockmusic.com Learn more about your ad choices.
