The Grammartini

2 1/2 oz gin

1/2 oz dry vermouth (The ratio is what's important.)

1 green olive (Some people use lemon. I say, what is up with that?)

Pour the ingredients into a mixing glass filled with ice cubes. (I use a Value Village cocktail shaker.)

Stir for 30 seconds. (You can also shake, but John McIntyre says this bruises the gin. Who wants to be charged with gin abuse?)

Strain into a martini glass.

Enjoy!
