I know many traditional Martini connoisseurs will tell me that there is only one true Martini, gin and dry vermouth. Very true, a Martini is a Martini, but who's to say an Apple Martini or an Orange Martini cannot have "Martini" in their names also? There are distinct differences between the classic Martini and the many cocktails that have adopted the "Martini" tag. Yet another side of this "debate" is the habit of calling any drink served in a cocktail glass a Martini.
Andrei,
Top of the Mark calls it a "martini", so that's what we're calling it! Thanks for your input.
