1. Shaken, stirred, or blended.

5. stirred -- and my tip is my martini recipe
Put a drop or two of vermouth in a martini glass
Swirl it around to coat the interior of the glass, then dump into sink


Pour a shot of gin into a cocktail shaker over ice.
Stir to chill the gin, then strain it into the martini glass.
Add an olive.

Drink it, and mix another.

8. interesting! I will try. . .
try substituting a good tequila sometime too -- sounds awful, but pretty darn good.

10. If I kept it in the freezer, like I do the gin,
it might work.
Thanks.
