The correct answer is ICBMs. First you tale a 1.75 litre bottle of Bombay. I prefer the 80 proof, the Sapphire has too much of a bite for me. Place in the freezer for at least 24 hours. Take some clear ice, regular old ice will kill any decent booze, put it in a double old fashion Baccarat tumbler, and fill er up to the brim, being careful not to spill any of that precious liquid on the counter. Then you put the crystal in the freezer for exactly 1 hour. When the hour is up, take your masterpiece out of the freezer and you gingerly place exactly 3 smaller spanish olives on a sterling silver toothpick and insert into the glass. Swirl the olives around the Bacarrat and find a comfy chair and put on your favorite CD. Sit back, relax, and enjoy!!!
Best Martini s
I am tired of seeing threads only about things I don't drink(sorry beer and scotch fans). I like Martini's and maybe others out there do also. I prefer mine with Bombay Saphire gin and Noilly Prat French Dry Vermouth. Start with a boston shaker 2/3 full of ice cubes, then add room temp. gin (I usually use 2 jiggers of gin but I have large glasses) and then add a quick mist of chilled vermouth after the gin is comfortable with the ice and proceed to shake the hell out of it. Then strain into a chilled cocktail glass(I prefer Riedel crystal) with NO garnish, I once heard a saying "garnish is a speed bump on the road to bliss". Any other martini fans out there? what do you prefer?
