For all the beer lovers out there, you have to try this Oklahoma martini. It's an easy twist on a classic martini.
Now, I truly don't know if this is actually named after Oklahoma City, but that doesn't take away from the fact that I think you will love this drink!
You'll love this Oklahoma martini
It's easy to make. This could be considered a very distant cousin of the classic dirty martini. I first saw this recipe on TikTok, it was being made at a golf course bar, and I love light beer and olives, so I knew I had to try it!
It's refreshing. I personally love a cold beer, and love the addition of the lemon and olives!
Ingredients
Light Beer. The original uses Coors Light, I like Miller Lite or Coors Light, so I recommend using either of those two light beers.
Lemon Juice. I typically don't order my martinis with a lemon twist, but I love this martini with one. You'll need just a splash of lemon juice from a fresh lemon.
Olive Brine. I like my martinis dirty, so I prefer to add a splash of olive juice to my Oklahoma martini. Other people simply let their olives sit in the beer.
Olives. You'll need three olives! No more, or no less!
How to make an Oklahoma martini
- In a chilled beer glass, add in 12 oz of a cold light beer, like Miller Light or Coors Light.
- Add in ½ oz of olive brine and ½ oz of fresh lemon juice.
- Garnish with 3 olives, and cheers!
Substitutions and variations
Like any cocktail, there are different variations to the Oklahoma martini.
Dry Vermouth. I always have a bottle of Martini & Rossi dry vermouth on my bar cart, and that's an ingredient in a basic martini, so you can add it to this beer cocktail, too!
Shot of Vodka. Next time you make this, you can try adding a shot of vodka.
