who would say a vodka martini isn't a martini at all.
I'm not one of them. Ketel One, just wave the vermouth bottle near the glass.

all you need is a good bottle of vodka, chilled and a shaker. Gin drinkers are a different breed...

11. Indeed! there is a recipe for Martinis. |
|
I barely concede the substitution of vodka. Everything else is a cocktail. :-)

14. We have a martini bar that has a "007". |
|
It has vodka and gin. Unremarkable IMHO. Gin (Tangeray) smells like Christmas. Vodka...well...hmmm??? :-)

18. 1. Avoid any place that calls itself a 'martini bar' |

2. Vodka...smells like an icy Siberian landscape, and you're huddled behind the hulk of a rusty Soviet tractor clutching your Walther PPK, your white dinner jacket amazingly uncreased, as you wait for M to arrive with the special equipment you'll need to infiltrate the SPECTRE base hidden just beyond the treeline...;)

you follow the James Bond example of sprinkling pepper into the vodka. This helps absorb the diesel fuel often found in Soviet vodka by dragging it to the bottom of the glass.
You are worthy of your literary name. :)

:-) And, on edit, I seem to have misspelled "success". Oh, well, I've only been average at spelling.
