Be it shaken or stirred, classic or dirty, the well-known Martini cocktail - arguably made even more famous by the James Bond movie franchise - has been taken to the next level by Hope Distillery, thanks to its premium range of Gins and Small Batch Vodka.

Hope Distillery has created a step-by-step guide to making your own Dirty Martini at home - during the first few days of lockdown, this end-of-the-day pick-me-up quickly took on the cheeky moniker of the “Quarantini”. Just because the world has been put on hold by a pandemic, doesn’t mean the Gin has to stop flowing!

 

 

 

 

 

 

While some prefer a Vodka Martini, this version focuses on Gin.

The Dirty Martini

 

YOU WILL NEED:

50ml Hope Mediterranean Gin

2.5ml Dry Vermouth

2.5ml Olive brine

Garnish: A green olive or two (or three…)

 

HERE'S HOW:

Add all the ingredients into a bar shaker filled with ice. Stir the contents for about 30 seconds until completely chilled. Strain your martini into a chilled martini glass and garnish with the olives to give your cocktail some extra pizzazz.

With Hope Mediterranean Gin, there are no half measures – so Gin-lovers can be sure that cocktails made with this premium spirit will impress even the most particular of palates.
