Just because you put a tail into a martini glass does not make it a martini.

If I pour a rye and coke into a pint glass it doesn't become beer, it's still a rye and coke.
Don't get me wrong, I've gone for fauxtinis from time to time, and some of them are really good, but they aren't martinis.
Thank you Shantz. This drives me crazy too. Let a martini be a martini and put this stuff in a highball glass where it belongs. Ahh.. remember when a martini didn't come with creme de menthe or cranberry juice?
