In that case "vodka" is the dumb adjective (yeah, I said it: vodka is dumb). But <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martini_(cocktail)" rel="nofollow">a "martini", without modifier, always implies gin</a>! Didn't I tell you not to get me started?! Gin is the defining flavor in a martini. If you take that out but serve it in a martini glass, that doesn't mean it's still a martini! It seems like people refer to anything served in a martini glass as a martini, even if it has neither gin nor vermouth. So silly! OKAY DONE People order vodka martinis, sure.

If "martini" isn't prefaced with some dumb adjective ("cranapple martini"?), it always means gin! Don't get me started! <3 u gin The phrase “gin martini” is redundant!
