Been a while since I’ve gone but their goose martini with the blue cheese olives is my favorite.
Gonna start making some at home. TIA

Maybe they use vermouth (never had it) but usually a dirty vodka martini subs out the vermouth for olive brine. Of course to get the exact flavor profile you’d have to know what kind of olive brine they use. There are many commercially available dirty martini brines available, so best advice is to start there or just use the brine in a jar of olives.
If they do use vermouth it’s likely just a dash of martini and Rossi dry vermouth.
ETA: Wife loves them. House ratio is 1 part olive juice (use a brand called dirty comes in an apple sauce style pouch) to 3 parts vodka. Also you can make a big batch and pour back into an empty bottle. Stash it in the freezer. That gets you a martini (either gin or dirty vodka) that is on the border of frozen. Just make sure you add some water to the batch.

I don’t think you use enough for it to be a big deal. Especially dirty. Usually just rinse the glass at most for those. I use Dolin for dry gin martinis.

I've made dirty vodka martinis with and without dry vermouth and by far it is much better without vermouth. Amazon has olive juice and I think Cannatella's Grocery has it in BR.

Yes just a rinse of the glass with vermouth and Dirty Toms is a nice olive juice product. While I don’t eat/drink them stuffing a big olive after removing the pimento with blue cheese is always a hit
Posted on 5/21/22 at 8:45 am to Cow Drogo
Dolin is my favorite dry vermouth

What is the reason for the water?

I’ve had just about every drink but for some reason I’ve never had a martini
Posted on 5/21/22 at 12:17 pm to Cow Drogo
Dolin or Noilly Prat probably.

It’s my favorite drink (gin only). I used to like it a bit dirty, but I’m fully converted to dry with a shake of orange bitters.

Call them up, they won’t hide the info from you

tell waitress if she expects a tip she needs to bring you the recipe to make it yourself, they know, its not a super duper secret

Perhaps to make up for the ice that melts when chilling the ingredients via shaking or stirring?

Upset?
Not in the least. But thinking you can taste the difference between the overrated Goose and the well vodka with olives and brine or vermouth is funny.
Posted on 5/21/22 at 8:58 pm to Cow Drogo
Their website says they use Dolin vermouth
Posted on 5/22/22 at 7:53 am to unclejhim
Martinis and other high proof cocktails such as a Manhattan depend on a little bit of the ice dilution from either shaking or stirring to smooth the drink. Otherwise it would be all harsh booze. Since you are blending and chilling without the ice have to bring that water back in somehow.
