The Dirty Martini takes the classic formula and subverts it with a bracing splash of olive brine, trading elegance for something more assertive and savory. The vodka's clean neutrality lets the salinity take center stage, cutting through the dry vermouth's subtle herbal notes. It's a cocktail that leans into its name—cloudy, unapologetically briny, and built for those who prefer their drinks with an edge.
