Olive + Bay Washed Martini
Here for the savory martini riffs 🍸🙋🏾♂️
#ad 21+ Together with my friends at @finlandiavodka_us, I'm going to show you how to add a bit more savory olive notes into your martinis by a process known as "fat washing". Fat washing using alcohol (in this case #Finlandia Vodka) to extract the subtle flavors out of fat soluble products. Today we're going to be infusing our vodka with both extra virgin olive oil and bay leaf. This recipe, paired with this dry vermouth produces an exceptionally savory and delightful martini. A couple drops of EVOO to finish just gives it that silky smooth, rich mouthfeel that just puts this one over the top.
Have you ever tried fat washing? Let me know what you think!
Cheers y'all!
