19 hours agoThe hill I will die on: Martinis should be served with a sidecar, or not at all | Josh Sharp
The martini is actually such a degenerate drink. It's straight up alcohol; the only thing that makes it feel classy is the glassware and the temperature. It's boozehound behaviour dressed up in formal wear. If you were drinking lukewarm vodka out of a leftover soda bottle, we would say you had a drinking problem. But drink it ice-cold in a coupe glass and now you're at Soho House. Now you're patrician. Now you're God.
