This set of 6 long stemmed martini glasses will perfectly complement your table. The traditional method of preparation is to pour gin and dry vermouth into a mixing glass with ice cubes, stir, strain into chilled cocktail glass and garnish with a green olive or a twist of lemon peel. *There are a number of variations on the traditional martini. The fictional spy James Bond sometimes asked for his vodka martinis to be shaken not stirred following Harry Craddock's Savoy Cocktail Book (1930), which prescribes shaking for all its martini recipes. However, Somerset Maugham is often quoted as saying that "a martini should always be stirred, not shaken, so that the molecules lie sensuously on top of one another" A martini may also be served on the rocks, that is, with the ingredients poured over ice cubes and served in an old fashioned glass. A dirty martini contains a splash of olive brine or olive juice and is typically garnished with an olive. A "perfect" martini uses equal amounts of sweet and dry vermouth.
