I've been drinking more and more Manhattans lately.

Ingredients:
3oz Bourbon
.5oz Extra Dry Vermouth
2 splashes Angostura bitters

Fill shaker half-full with ice and add ingredients. Shake, strain into an old-fashioned or martini glass and garnish with a maraschino cherry. Delicious!

I mostly stick to the drinks with the ingredients in the name
Goose and Cranberry
Crown and Cola




Dirty Scurvy Pirate - made by my roommates in college, not as terrible as it may sound

Best when used in a party setting because of the measuremnts

750 mL - Parrot Bay Rum
1 can - Limeade concentrate
750 mL - Decent Vodka or Rum (could choose your favorite flavor)
2L - Sprite
1/2 G - Orange Juice
Skittles to taste

OK it was kind of a joke when we made it, but it tasted damn good at the time.

Vodka martini:

Frozen vodka (prefereably not in a plastic bottle)
Vermouth
Lemon

Open vermouth. Close vermouth.
Pour vodka in martini glass.
Garnish with lemon peel.
Serve

--
A good summer drink (called a Club Special where I play golf): fill a tall glass with ice, pour vodka to taste (i.e. a bunch), add the juice of one lime and one lemon, then fill up glass with equal quantities of Sprite and club soda.

Yeah, I used to think I was a martini fan, but then I realized the less vermouth I had in it the better I liked it. Now I skip the vermouth completely. And use freezer-chilled gin. YUM! Of course this is no longer a martini.

Never had it with dry vermouth, usually the sweet. Might have to give it a try sometime.
