Martini: Probably the most famous of all, Martini has as many variants as there are bartenders. Most books make them two parts gin to one part vermouth: but who drinks them that way? Best bet is four to one. Stir, don't shake ingredients with cracked ice, or ice cubes. Either is okay: cracked will cool drink faster, but contrary to common opinion, you'll get the same amount of water either way. Garnish is a question of taste. Better to rub lemon twist around glass than dunk it. Onion (cocktail size) is preferred by some, is usual in Gibson, 7 to 1 Martini. Manhattan: Made 2 to 1, or 3 to 1. Bourbon is best, but any reasonable blended whiskey is okay. Either sweet or dry Vermouth, depending on taste. Serve sweet Manhattan with cherry, dry with olive or lemon peel, as in Martini.
