The Dirty Martini has been popular since F.D.R. Dirty Sue perfected the olive juice that makes this cocktail a comeback sensation.
Ingredients
- 2 ounce gin or vodka
- ½ ounce extra-dry vermouth
- ½ ounce dirty sue olive juice
- 1 or 2 green olives as garnish
Directions
Pour the liquid ingredients in a mixing glass with cracked ice. Stir and strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Garnish with olives.
That is the question my trusty google reader better have an answer for!!
Gorgeous photo and I could go for some of that slaw RIGHT NOW!! Next on the agenda though is finding some of the ingredients — My Man’s Belly and I are going to have to do some recon on this one!!
You’re in Hawaii! Blogging is forbidden (but thanks for such a pretty salad)!
What an absolutely yummy sounding slaw. I have to make this soon. I hope you are having a spectacular time.
I have been looking forward to your posts from Hawaii, and you do not disappoint. This is really interesting. I enjoy your factoids very much. Plus this salad sounds delicious. Thanks.
I can vouch for how delicious the Slaw was, served at the beach at the Pu’uhonua o Honaunau. It is certainly more beautiful in the photo than when I discovered it, a few juliennes floating in a dark pool. This lovely offering had been ravished by dozens of Blok Partiers. Even so, it was absolutely delicious–and tasted really local. Awesome, Greg. Thanks for the ohana connection to the outside world…love

I want to try the Irish Moss or the Rock Weed — those names cracked me up! I’m now on a mission to see if my grocery store has anything this exotic, you’ve made me curious!
Hey Greg, I love any post that gives such description of a food and its nutritional properties. And, wow, that’s a lot of potassium packed into this delicious looking sea slaw (smile). I would eat it!
I don’t know which I like more in Hawaii — the food or the outdoors. Good thing I don’t have to pick. Enjoy your travels.
I like it when I walk into the room and such fabulous sexy food is looking at me!
Love this…I am a ‘slaw’ person, so when I go places I have to try every version, and I do not mean I ride the ‘slaw’ bus either (southern for slow, uh, I felt I might need to explain that joke)…
I’d love to try this — very interesting! What’s tomorrow’s post… a whole roasted pig? 🙂
I love ogo, and really miss it. So cool and crunchy, and tastes of the sea.
There are a few places in the Bay Area that bring in fresh ogo from Hawaii, but on the day I wanted to make my ahi limu poke http://www.houseofannie.com/ahi-limu-poke/ all I could find was the dried stuff at Marukai.
Hope you’re liking Kona! Have you gone to see any coffee farms?
Mm, reminding me of when I was in Kona a couple of years ago.
Our family has a second house in Ooahu that we have been wanting to visit, when we do I will have to try this recipe! Enjoy your time with your bestie.
Lucky you in Hawaii! I have never been, but I am sure the scenery and the food is fabulous! Have an amazing time! 🙂
Oh how I would love to visit Hawaii. I have a friend who’s going to a university there. I hope you’re having a wonderful time!!
Awesome slaw btw!! Looks very summery and inviting. When’s the luau??? hehehe…
I can smell the salt air and plumeria’s as I read this. I’m sure we can find ogo here in LA, but now the question is — where? Now I’m on a quest.
That looks wonderful!!! I bet that would be great over somen, too!!! YUM!!
That’s some slaw!!! I bet it tastes wonderful… love the flavor of fish sauce and I bet it just adds a huge amount of depth to the dish.
