FAQ
Why does a drink sometimes be called a "martini" by some people?
When Americans consumed more alcoholic drinks in the early 1900s they called every alcohol-containing drink a "martini". This term was eventually associated with a particular type of martini, one that used dry vermouth rather than sweet vermouth.
What can we do when someone orders a "dirty” Martini?
A dirty martini can be a martini topped with extra olives.
Are my drinks safe to freeze?
Yes, but there are some precautions you should follow. Be sure to label your bottles so that you know which ones are frozen. Also, don't fill your bottles more than halfway. You risk your drink spilling out of the bottle. If you intend to freeze your drinks, you should wait at least 2 hours after opening the bottle before pouring the contents into another container.
Why is a martini so great?
A martini has been called the "ultimate cocktail". It's the simplest drink but has the most complex flavor. It's equal parts gin- and vermouth.
Gin is made from fermented Juniper berries. It's known for its refreshingly smooth taste. Vermouth, a fortified wine made with herbs like wormwood (or gentian), is called vermouth. This combination gives you a delicious combination sweet and sour flavours.
What purpose is a shot glasses used for?
Shot glasses are small cups that can be used for serving shots. You can use them to measure 1/2 ounce, 1/4 ounce, or 1/8 ounce of liquor.

How To
How to order drinks from the bar without embarrassing yourself
There are many ways to order drinks at the local bar, but these methods require you to know what kind of drink you want before you go up to the counter. If you don't know which drink you want, you can ask your server what order they would recommend. This way, you won't embarrass yourself when asking them to make recommendations.
This method involves speaking with your server and telling them what type of drink you want. You could say, "I would like a glass beer." Next, tell the server what kind of beer it is. If you want Budweiser, for example, you might say "a Budweiser." Next tell your server the size you prefer (e.g. small, medium, large). You'll never feel awkward again after you have finished.
