Category:Martinis

There are many drinks which are called Martinis, but which don't fall into the Martini category (in much the same vein as the Singapore Sling is termed a Sling despite bearing little resemblance to one). Some examples of misleadingly named drinks include the Cowboy Martini (which is built more along the lines of an Old-Fashioned), and the Extra Dry Vodka Martini (a euphemism for a measure of chilled vodka).
