For a sweeter martini, increase the amount of simple syrup. Use high-quality vodka for the best flavor. Gently muddle the mint leaves in the shaker to release their aromatic oils, but avoid over-muddling, which can result in a bitter taste. Chilling the martini glass beforehand will enhance the drinking experience.
