History
A well-diluted shaken Dry Martini. However, it seems a waste of good vermouth.
The origins of this drink are unknown. It is noted, however, that former U.S. President Richard Nixon was said to favor his Martini prepared in this manner. Further information can be found on the Martini History page.
