Sea salt, olive oil and a silky finish
2.5 oz / 7.5 cl Purity Gin 34 Nordic London Dry Organic
1/2 oz / 1.5 cl dry vermouth
A small pinch of fine sea salt
2 to 3 drops extra virgin olive oil
Nordic Salted Olive Martini
The Dirty Martini uses olive brine for its savory edge. The Nordic Salted Olive Martini takes a more refined route: a pinch of sea salt in the drink and a few drops of fine olive oil floating on top.
Gin 34 Nordic London Dry gives it a clean, juniper-led backbone with herbal depth. The salt makes every flavor a little brighter, and the olive oil adds a silky texture and a fruity, peppery aroma that rises from the glass.
Savory, silky and quietly sophisticated.
Chill a Martini glass or Nick & Nora.
Add Gin 34 Nordic London Dry, dry vermouth and a small pinch of sea salt to a mixing glass filled with ice.
Stir for about 30 seconds, until very cold.
Strain into the chilled glass and finish with 2 to 3 drops of olive oil on the surface.
Use a fruity, peppery olive oil and add it with a dropper or the tip of a spoon after straining. The drops should float like little golden beads: beautiful to look at, and aromatic with every sip.
