Best Answer

A dirty martini is made using the olives as an ingredient rather than a garnish.

Fill a glass with ice and add 10ml of dry vermouth (martini extra dry), swill the martini round to cover the ice, pour out the excess, add 75ml of a good vodka, 5-10ml of the brine from the olives and a few of olives. shake it lightly and double strain with a sieve or tea strainer into your martini glass. Garnish with a few olives on a cocktail stick.

We calculate 114 calories per standard drink for a Dirty Martini made with the recipe linked in the linked blog (2 oz London Dry Gin, 1/2 Oz Dry Vermouth, 3/4 Oz Olive Juice). Note that this recipe makes nearly two standard drinks, so it has 209 calories. A standard drink is 0.6 fluid ounces of pure alcohol.

A version of the martini is the "dirty" martini in which olive brine is used in place of, or alongside, vermouth. It is also generally garnished with an olive. Additionally, the term "dusty" martini is a dirty martini that has only a fraction of the usual olive brine.

Folklore has stated that at the end of the Great Depression and Prohibition, President Roosevelt's first drink was the Dirty Martini. Who knows this could be true. Here is a recipe for a Dirty Martini: * 1.25 oz (37.5 ml) gin of choice * 1.75 oz (52.5 ml) vermouth * 1 tsp. green olive brine * 1 stuffed green olive Add all ingredients except for stuffed green olive into a shaker with ice. Shake. Rub a martini glass rim with a lemon twist. Pour Dirty Martini into glass. Garnish with stuffed olive.

Between 200 - 220. The olives and brine have very few calories, the bulk of the calories come from the vodka and vermouth.
