Stop me if you heard this one ..
A guy walks into a jazz bar and orders a Martini with the local gin. Server returns with a gin and tonic.
Guy notes discrepancy, server returns with bartender. Guy kindly explains a Martini:. Gin, ice, shaken, strained into a glass. Lemon twist if ya got it. Followup discussion at the bar, to ensure clarity
Guy gets gin with sweetened lime juice,. And lime wedge. At least the glassware was on point..
Can't take more than a few sips, so ask for the check. Bill is for two G&T. Story repeats from the top, including a visit with the bartender to reenact the Martini dialogue.
My take.. A jazz club without a solid martini is missing a critical ingredient. Enter with caution
