The ‘Filthy As Fuck’ Martini from Luckys Lounge.
If you like your olives with a side of martini, this one’s for you. Luckys Lounge is pouring what owner Sam Overton calls “the most filthy as fuck martini” — and it delivers. Big on brine, unapologetically savoury, and not trying to be anything else. If your palate leans salty over sweet, lock this in.
Ingredients:
60ml Frankie Cadillac gin
15ml house made dry vermouth
2 dash’s of house made celery bitters
4 green olives
10 green olives to garnish
Method:
Add the 4 olives and vermouth in the tin. Muddle olives until completely smashed.
Add the gin and the bitters, then ice and stir until the tin is cold.
Grab your small rocks glass and add a mini old fashion ice cube from bare bones ice.
Loosely strain with your hawthorn strainer and no mesh sieve as you want some of the broke olive flesh to fall into the drink.
Top with 10 olives to garnish.
