Use smoke in the glass. If you have smoked ice, put some in the shaker. Put vodka and pickle juice in the shaker... 4:1 vodka to juice. Shake and strain. Garnish with gherkins. Alternative: Serve on the rocks with smoked ice and some smoke in glass.

OK, tell me about smoked ice. That's a new one on me. This sounds like a better dirty martini than using olive juice, which I'm not that fond of.

I don't care for olives and I have to be in the right mood for Gin... Plus don't usually use vermouth. In fact when I bartended and they wanted it dry, I'd pour a little vermouth on the bar mat (it helped increase tips). I actually drink this most often on the rocks... About 2/3 vodka and 1/3 pickle juice,Tito's is my go too.Originally posted by Dewesq55 View PostI don't know, Dr. Bear. Where I come from, martinis don't have either vodka or pickles.

Meathead has a great article. Run ice through a smoker, let it melt, re freeze it. I haven't tried icewith my new smoking gun, but it is nice in the glass to give some flavor.Originally posted by BruceB View PostOK, tell me about smoked ice. That's a new one on me.

I tried both last night with the last of my smoked ice. I enjoyed the results, but I love a heavy smoky taste... I think it might be overkill for some folks.Originally posted by OGMrWhite View PostI prefer smoking the glass instead of the ice. I tried smoking frozen ice (for 5-7 minutes) and melting ice in a snapware full of smoke. The glass provides a much smokier aroma.

You can also use the smoking gun to add smoke flavor to your mixer if you're making something with a mixer. I.E. smokey bloody mary.
