No More Olives

I am sorry to say, there are no more olives today. For gin, I have Beefeater and Tanqueray. I also have Gordon’s, Seagram’s, and Bombay. There are a few others you can see. I have the best dry vermouth with Martini and Rossi. I can put some together in a pitcher with ice. Then I can stir it up until it is frosty and nice. What was that you said, Mr. Gibson? You want your drink served with a pearl onion? I will go and see if they are around. I am sure a jar of them can be found.

No Andrea, I have never worked as a bartender. When I dealt table games in Atlantic City, waitresses would be serving all kinds of drinks to the players.
