Me...I am drinking straight up sink water.
I am drinking an Old Tom gin martini. Old Tom is a gin which has been reconstructed from an 1800's recipe. Allegedly, it is the gin that the original martini is made from. The recipe for an OT martini is: 4 parts Old Tom, 1/2 part white (dry) vermouth, 1/2 part red (sweet) vermouth, and a twist of lemon peel.

Okay, truthfully, I didn't have a lemon lying around, so I used a twist of orange peel. Lemon is better.

Shaken, not stirred.

Bond. Harmon Bond.

Meanwhile, had I noticed this question last night, the answer would have been 'drinking iced Aquavit'; this because I just read The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo which takes place in Sweden and they kept drinking shots of the stuff. When in Rome....I suppose.
You know what goes well with that? Chopped liver. Really. With lots of chopped onions. I learned that at the Russian Tea House in Chicago, where they have a flight of vodkas served with chopped liver as an appetizer. Or dessert. Or meal. I order all of them...

"Gin martini" is redundant. Those things with vodka are not martinis. I think vermouth improves gin, and corrupts vodka. Vodka needs to be taken straight, IMHO.

I'm not a blended scotch fan - but I'll certainly take it if offered. I do like some of the single malts. Laghroaig for example. I like the smokey peat taste. But Oban when I want something cooperative and not assertive.
