[01]
Overview
The creator demonstrates how to make a signature Oyster Shell Martini. They explain how they use discarded oyster shells, which are cleaned, boiled, and smashed before being infused into vodka using a sous-vide method. After straining the shells, they batch the cocktail by combining the infused vodka with dry vermouth, simple syrup, saline solution, verjus, water, and homemade jalapeño brine, then serve it straight from the freezer.

Transcript
Main ingredient in our martini is discarded oyster shells. We get through hundreds of oysters in a single day and follow. Our KP save them all, clean and boil them, come straight to us to the bar to create our homemade oyster shell vodka. It starts by smashing down the shells to release that intense briny flavor, then we cover it our house vodka and sous vide for sixty minutes to infuse the spirit. We best through a chinois to remove any pieces of shells and it's ready to batch. For the mix, we combine dry vermouth in a three to two ratio and use a simple syrup and saline solution to adjust the sweetness. We better a touch of vajoux and to finish, we add better, which allows us to serve it straight from the freezer and plenty of homemade jalapeno brine for a touch of spice. It's pickly, salty, and crisp with an intense flavor and, of course, perfect with our calling for the oysters starting the cycle all over again.
