Preferred the vodka martini #1 with a 3:1 ratio, not the 10:1 ratio in the vodkatini recipe. I’m not sure why you would have such a tiny amount of flavour (from vermouth) along with flavourless vodka. Might as well just have a vodka shot if you want to get flavourless alcohol into you.
Honestly, I think it's far inferior to a classic Martini with a good gin. With vodka the taste of the dry Vermouth became very prevalent even in a small amount.
Now this is interesting. A subtle drink of Noilly Prat and lemon zest, that kicks you in the head. Fun for the sledgehammer blow it delivers, but I'd rather enjoy neat dry vermouth on ice with a twist.
