Easy Dirty Martini

Do you like martinis, but the alcohol is too strong? Have you ever wondered what a dirty martini is? Well the answer is simple. A dirty martini is just like a regular martini, but it usually has  some added olive juice. The olive juice helps tame the flavor of the alcohol, and gives the martini more of an amber color, instead of the classic clear martini color.

When making a dirty martini you can just mix up your favorite gin or vodka, and add a little brine from your green olive jar. Shake with ice and strain into a chilled glass, add some olives, (at least three) and voila, you have a classic dirty martini.
