History of the Drink
The Martini is a classic cocktail that has been enjoyed for well over a century. Originally, the term "Martini" referred specifically to a cocktail made with Gin and Vermouth, served straight up in a chilled cocktail glass with a twist of Lemon or Olive garnish.
However, over time, the Martini has evolved to encompass a wide variety of cocktails made with different spirits, mixers, and garnishes. Today, the term "Martini" is often used as a catch-all term for any cocktail served in a Martini glass, regardless of its ingredients or preparation.
While the term "Martini" is often used as a catch-all term for any cocktail served in a Martini glass, many bartenders and cocktail enthusiasts do draw a distinction between the classic Martini and other Martini-style cocktails.
