The vodka martini category covers all drinks that fit in a cocktail glass and have a measure of vodka that overwhelms the cocktail. While many sweet drinks arrive in such a glass, these are classified by extreme potency or “ethanol” style tasting properties that wake you up like a punch in the face.

The vodka martini category is reserved for drinks that are not overly sweet nor overly sour; usually more neutral based with hints of flavors.
