Preparing the Glass
Fill a small saucer with water. Measure about a tablespoon of water and make sure it's filled mostly towards the edge.
Add brown sugar to another small saucer. Depending on the quantity of martinis you are planning to make, add a teaspoon or several to the saucer.
Dip the glass rim into the water. As you lift up the glass, gently swirl it to give it a cleaner appearance.
Dip the glass rim into the brown sugar. Gently roll the rim in it, using the water as an adhesive.
Preparing the Martini
Add crushed ice to a cocktail shaker. Fill it about halfway with ice.
Measure and pour the alcohol ingredients into the shaker.
Shake the contents. Secure the lid and vigorously shake it for a few seconds. You will know when the contents are cold when you see condensation building up on the outside of the shaker.
Strain the contents. Attach a strainer to the cocktail shaker (if the shaker doesn't have one) and strain it into the martini glass.
Finished. Garnish if desired or simply enjoy as it is.
