Notes
You can scale this recipe up to serve larger crowds, or simply to have ice-cold martinis on hand at any time. For an easy, large-batch version, combine 16 oz gin, 8 oz vermouth, 8 oz sherry, and 2 oz amaro in a 1-liter container. Store in the freezer for at least 24 hours, and keep indefinitely to serve when thirsty.
