    What is her favorite Martini?

    She likes to try the odd-flavored martinis...like chocolate, apple, etc. Her favorite is the dirty martini made with vodka.

    I tried a number of Martinis on the Mercury but normaly I do not get the various special ones. I usually have either vodka, dirty or just vodka on the rocks.

    Think I can do without the olive juice. Guess I like clean martini's.

    When I make martini's at home, I put just a little of vermouth on the ice, swirl it around and then throw away the vermouth before adding the vodka. That makes for a very dry martini.
