Martini ‘54 | 10, olive oil washed vodka, vermouth bianco, olive tincture, lemon oil, garnished with a pepperoncini-stuffed olive and caper berry.
The ‘54 is our signature martini giving an ode to when we opened in 1954. Combining the crispness of a Vesper, slight brininess of a Dirty Martini, silky smoothness from the olive oil wash, finished with some heat of the pepperoncini pepper, it’s one that all martini lovers alike will enjoy. 😍🍸🫒
