Q: What is the recipe for the "Good-man Martini," the official drink of Las Vegas?

A:
Two parts chilled Bombay Sapphire Gin, one part chilled Bombay Sapphire Gin, a quick glance over at the dry vermouth and two stuffed blue cheese olives -— preferably on the side, so as not to take up too much space in the glass.
