POPSGary Regan: 10 essential cocktails you can make at home The article says once you can make a margarita you'll also be able to make a sidecar, a kamikaze, even a cosmopolitan This is because they all fall in the drinks family known as New Orleans sours . And I'm LMAO at the commenter who snippily opined "The author obviously does not know how to make a martini." Um... it's Gary Regan . Not that the man is a god, but most cocktailians would put him on any list of the top 10 cocktail experts. (And 4-to-1 is a perfectly reasonable balance for a martini. All you "just whisper 'vermouth' over the glass before you pour the vodka" people? You're not drinking a martini. You're not even drinking a vodka martini. You're drinking straight vodka, maybe with an olive. Deal with it.)
