This week is all about the martini! We caught up with Simon Ford of Fords Gin to discuss Music to Drink Martinis To, a new program that serves as a love letter to the iconic martini cocktail and the brand’s affinity for music. Simon shares all about the program, which includes a seven-track vinyl LP with an accompanying booklet filled with martini tips, tricks and recipes. In this episode, Simon talks all about the history of the martini and the various components including the iconic glass, ice, vermouth, garnishes and of course, gin. Enjoy this episode as we go Beyond the Plate AND Beyond the Drink... with Simon Ford.
