Martini with two olives, please....

And don't forget to take your aluminum travel coffee mug along, which doubles brilliantly as a cocktail shaker!

Shucks, I took a shaker and a cheap silicone icecube tray with me last year. We were in the PH, and had oodles of folks over for martinis each day.... There was a shaker in the butler's pantry, but one was not enough....

My travel kit includes a shaker and 2 stainless steel martini glasses (also called cocktail glasses).

Many hotels won't let you near pools or hot tubs with glass so stainless steel works great.

And you'd be amazed how much attention they get aboard ships. Even the waiters on ships are fascinated with them. And they keep cold slightly longer.:cool:

 

And Bellybutton is right to be picky about ice when you are able: the sharper the ice the better the martini.:)

Yum!!! I should have thought of this sooner....

 

 

Did I tell you I love Martinis? This is a picture (if I can do this right) in Downtown Las Vegas.

I have a pair of Swarovski martini glasses, but they are too fragile to travel with....:eek: But I do use them at home. And I purchased a set of 6 souvenir martini glasses last Nov on Connie.

 

Then, at a flea market, I discovered 8 mini martini glasses sitting all alone in a corner; now they are prominently displayed in one of my china hutches.

 

Whatever I buy in the islands I use in the cabin; they're not trophies to me.... I love drinking out of my finest stuff. Doesn't make the cocktail taste any better, but it surely is nice to have a handsome vessel....
