Why is a martini delicious?
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 is a wine fortified with herbs such as wormwood, gentian, and other spices. These two liquids combine to create a delicious mixture of sweet flavors and sour tastes.
