Dry Martini

The exact origin of the Dry Martini is disputed, but it took shape in the United States from the late 19th to the early 20th century. Made with gin and a small amount of dry vermouth. It is perhaps the most famous cocktail in history, inseparable from James Bond, symbolizing simplicity, sophistication, and purity. Over time, it has become increasingly "dry," using even less vermouth.
