Story
The Martini is a classic cocktail that has been popular for over a century. It is believed to have originated in the late 19th century in Martinez, California, where a bartender created a cocktail with gin, vermouth, and maraschino liqueur for a miner on his way to Martinez. The drink eventually evolved into the modern Martini with just gin and vermouth.
