A Sublime Recipe 0 Just Add This 0 Palate Pleasers FOODﬂDR INK Classic Mix The near-mythic quest for the perfect martini continues to draw in cocktail enthusiasts and inspire further innovations and techniques. Here, all you need to know about making a great martini. BY J A S O N R OWA N The Question Long ago, serious bartenders resolved the “shaken or stirred?” conundrum. A drink shaken vigorously with ice cubes will indeed become cold, but in the shaking process shards of ice break oﬀ and disperse into the mixture. The resulting frothiness and texture can be pleasant at ﬁrst, but it becomes vexing when your drink becomes watered down. Martinis should be all spirit, not 10 percent water. That's why stirring, with its extremely slight dilution from melted ice, is key. @ J WM MAGAZINE 43 J W M A R R I O T T. C O M http://www.JWMARRIOTT.COM
