martini experiment

Saturday night and family are here, the little  dude is asleep, and the sis in law and i am on the cocktails, its always nice to make and share cocktails  with someone,  and makes me sound like less of a lush when i drink alone, so couple glasses  wine with dinner then the first cocktail  is a martenz (thats spelt wrong i know, but hey cocktails night) martini,
 the recipe
2oz gin
3/4 sweet vermouth
1/4marachino liquor
dash bitters
Twist of  lemon peel as garnish

Now i dont have  marachino liquor  but i have kirsch so use that instead.. now i like it, its very strong, can taste the vermouth above anything but as you get down the glass the sweeter it tastes and the more you taste the cherry flavour. My opinion  is that its ok, but gets nicer the more you have... but we are now onto the margaritas  :)
Tequila. ... it makes me happy
