Order a martini and you may be asked: gin or vodka? Shaken or stirred? Wet or dry? Olives or a twist? Perhaps it's the ritual of hospitality—which is the unspoken ingredient in every martini—that makes it a sacred cow of cocktail culture. Treat the martini with respect and it will respect you. Today you'll find martinis that better reflect the diaspora of American drinkers and drink makers, like the umami bomb that is the MSG martini at Bonnie's. You may even run into a real curveball, like the tequila martini at Dante. Tequila? In a martini? For me, that's within the rules. You'll find our 50 favorite martinis in America below, listed alphabetically by state, kicking off with our Martini of the Year. |
