Midway Hawker Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 A martini, by definition, is made with Gin... Which I prefer.. Which I'm drinking right now... Beefeater... yummmmmmmmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lerxt1990 Posted October 14, 2006 Author Share Posted October 14, 2006 Another common but controversial variation is the vodka martini, which is prepared in exactly the same way as a standard martini, with vodka being substituted for gin as the base spirit. In the 1990s, the vodka martini supplanted the traditional gin-based martini in popularity. Today, when bar and restaurant customers order "a martini," they frequently have in mind a drink made with vodka. Martini purists decry this development: while few object to the drink itself, they strenuously object to it being called "a martini." The martini, they insist, is a gin-based cocktail; this variation should be designated as such, with the name "vodka martini" (it may also be called a "vodkatini" or a "kangaroo"). Further confusion may arise from confusing Martini vermouth, a brand of vermouth, with the martini cocktail. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martini_%28cocktail%29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davidroher Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 The origin of the Vodka Martini comes from the first James Bond film. Dr. No. The drink itself is less than 100 years old. David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
