The Boardroom

The addition of a wonderful Scotch adds some funky dimension to this martini. We suggest listening to an Xavier Cugat rhumba while mixing this drink.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 ounce dry vermouth.
  • 4 ounces of Tanqueray TEN gin.
  • 2 tablespoons Laphroig scotch (ten year old). You can experiment with any good, single malt Scotch.
  • 2 lemon twists.

The mix

  • Pour your vermouth and gin into a shaker 1/2 full of cracked ice.
  • Shake, shake, shake for a full minute. You may also stir for a full two minutes.
  • Add your Scotch and stir 4 times in a counter-clockwise motion.
  • Strain your smokey flavored martini into two well chilled martini glasses.
  • Each glass gets a twist.
  • Sip and enjoy those Xavier Cugat tunes.
