How is vermouth served?

Question

Is vermouth stored like other wines? Red at room temperature and white (Bianco and dry) at the friege?

Answer 1

Sweet and dry Vermouth is an aperitif wine and can be served chilled or on ice.

Dry vermouth is used to make a martini ( 2 oz. of gin or vodka and 1/4 oz of dry vermouth) served on the rocks or straight up with an olive or lemon twist.



A popular drink is the half and half (one oz. of dry vermouth mixed with one oz. of sweet vermouth over ice with a twist of lemon).

As for storage, they don't need to be refrigerated unless you plan to store them for a long period of time.

Answer 4

Dry vermouth (clear) is used in martinis.  It's also very good as the added liquid in omelets and scrambled eggs, which I discovered by accident.  Sweet vermouth (red) is used in Manhattans with bourbon, or in Rob Roys, with Scotch.
