Not Really a Martini Monday
Yes, it is Monday, but this is actually just a chilled vodka with olives. (Shhh, don't tell Tom!)
One is good, two are better.

Are those blue cheese-stuffed olives? Because if so, I can almost forgive the vodka (and the no vermouth).
Almost.
;-)
Not bleu cheese, but goat cheese. A specialty at the bar known as Olive.
And very tasty in a chilled Stoli or Grey Goose or Ketel One.
Sorry, but only gin is a martini. If it's anything with vodka, it's a cocktail. Can be a very good one, but words are important.
And it's best to shake some Noilly Prat with the ice, pour it off, than add your gin and shake.
Now that's a handsome shot.
(George, Generik gets it all the time for the vodka thing -- hence, "Not Really a Martini Monday.")
A lovely shot. goat cheese stuffed olives? my god, that's just too awesome!
Right. Not Really a Martini. Posted on Monday. I understand and appreciate the distinction.
It was a damn good cocktail, though!
