Dry Vermouth (if you use sweet you are commie infiltrator from TWI)
Good vodka - Belvedere or Grey Goose or your pick - but none of the Skyy nonsense
Lemon twist (thin slice of skin of lemon)
Olives or Onioins - I am not religious about either and in fact like both at the same time - Jalapeno or garlic stuffed olives preferred
Shaker and bar strainer
Ice
Prechill glasses with ice for 5 minutes or so - meanwhile spear your olives and/or onions with toothpicks
Pour ice out of glasses and pour a tiny bit of DRY Vermouth into them - just enough so that when you swish the glass around it just coats the inside of the glass - pour the rest out or into the next glass.
Squeeze each lemon twist to get the oil out then rub the rim of each glass with the lemon rind
Put ice in the shaker - about 1/4 full - add Vodka and shake till chilled
Pour into glasses through a bar strainer
Add the tiniest bit of juice from the olive/onion jar - I just take a couple of drops of each out with a toothpick
Add onions/olives - serve with good friends and an expensive cigar

Buttery Nipple:
Fill a shot glass 2/3 full with butterscotch schnaps and 1/3 full of Baileys
tilt the glass when pouring the Baileys and pour it slowly...it will look like a parfait.
Chug it down and then make another one...and another one...and another one

...or if you REALLY want to get a good buzz:
Groucho's homemade Sangria wine:
Chop up (in big pieces)... an apple, pear, peach, and lime...place together in a large pitcher
add a cinnamin stick
pour in 1 bottle of blackberry wine
add 3 shots of orange liquer
add 1/2 bottle of dark rum
mix together and allow to sit in the fridge overnight
pour over ice and drink...
*caution...Do not drink more than 4 glasses if you have just eaten "Groucho's meatloaf"...or you may end up "driving the porcelin bus"

Prophetic. Isn't it?
