Gin Martini Recipe with Devon Gin
A gin martini should be big, bold, and beautiful. It’s one of the most iconic cocktails ever created. Simple and elegant, it’s designed to let a great gin shine.
Using Copper Frog Gin gives this classic cocktail a bright citrus-forward flavour that lifts the entire drink. To add a subtle twist, we include a splash of Fino sherry, which adds a crisp, slightly salty edge that beautifully balances the botanicals.
The result is a martini that feels both classic and distinctive. It’s perfect as an aperitif before dinner or when you want to impress your guests with a well-made cocktail.
Don’t forget to let people know your martini is made with gin from Devon. It’s a nice touch... you show off.

How to Make a Gin Martini
- Add the Copper Frog Gin, Fino sherry, and orange bitters to a mixing glass.
- Fill the glass with plenty of ice, and then add a bit more. Getting it really cold is the key to a great martini.
- Stir well until the mixture is properly chilled.
- Strain into your favourite cocktail glass.
We like to serve this martini in a Nick and Nora glass. It’s elegant, timeless, and always impresses guests.
The secret to a great martini is balance. Copper Frog Gin adds bright citrus botanicals and a clean structure. The fino sherry brings dryness and a gentle salty note that makes the cocktail more complex.
This martini is perfect to serve when friends arrive before dinner. It sets a tone that’s sophisticated, relaxed, and just a bit indulgent. Serve it well chilled, keep the conversation going, and enjoy a cocktail that celebrates great gin from Devon.
