From the Labs, still working on the vinegar/lime mix, more lime, less distilled?

Prepare beforehand and let steep overnight:
1 part apple cider vinegar
2 parts white wine vinegar
1 part distilled white vinegar
1 part lime juice
Spices (Cayenne, garlic powder, chili powder, black pepper)

Combine 2 parts mix: 1 part tequila
dash of cointreau

Shake with ice, strain into a salt-rimmed martini glass

After going all-in with the "bow in the vague direction of France" portion of vermouth, I actually believe a good balance of gin and vermouth creates the perfect martini.

3 parts gin (see below)
1 part dry vermouth (Dolin, or sub in Lillet Blanc)
1 dash olive brine

Shake with cracked ice, strain and pour into a cocktail glass.

Garnish with an olive or two on a skewer, or cocktail onions for a gibson. The Columbia Room serves their signature martini with a twist and a dash of orange bitters.
