What Barware Do I Need To Make A Martini?
- A Cocktail Shaker - when it comes to martinis, I'm just like James Bond where I prefer mine shaken, not stirred.
- A Shot glass - for easily measuring your SMIRNOFF Peppermint Twist vodka and Bailey's Irish Cream. The cocktail shaker I have linked above comes with a shot glass.
- A Strainer - after shaking your martini with ice, the strainer will keep the ice from going into your glass. Most cocktail shakers (just like the one listed above) comes with a built in strainer.
- Martini Glasses - for serving up your martini in!
