I just came back from a bar. After having a look at the card I ordered a martini with the Bombay Sapphire. Got me a confused look by the waiter. My friend already made jokes about disaster waiting to happen and he was so right. What I received was Bombay Sapphire and Martini Bianco, mixed appr. 1:5. I guess that was the moment I heared god striking the bartender down with a lightning.
After some conversation I got the next one like I wanted, Bombay Sapphire and Martini Extra Dry, 4:1, with a a lemon twist.
My favorite is Bombay Sapphire in a 3:1 or 4:1 ratio to the vermouth. Prefere it with 3 olives. As a appetizer before dinner a dirty martini is nice, too. Vodkatini is not really my thing, I prefere it the old way.
I'm looking forward to try some different vermouth than 'Martini Extra Dry'.
