¼	fl oz	Fino sherry

Display recipe in:

How to make:

STIR all ingredients with ice and strain into chilled glass.

Garnish:

Large caperberry on pick

Comment:

As the name suggests, fino sherry and caper brine add saltiness but this 'Salty Martini' also has a distinct nuttiness from the sherry. We'd suggest both a long stir for generous dilution, and serving with grilled almonds.
