Have a sip

Martini used to have a bad rap. After its heyday in the 60s - think Jackie O, Givenchy, and Cap Ferrat - it quickly descended the ranks, becoming the chav drink of choice before almost disappearing all together.

But after a prolonged image problem, the iconic Italian vermouth, is a retro taste we're reclaiming.

Try the new Rosato version - aimed at the fashionable rosé drinker - topped with with pomegranate juice at the Martini Terrazza, the exclusive terrace that opened this week. Open for only two weeks, the Martini Terrace is a regular fixture at the likes of the Cannes Film Festival and Monaco Grand Prix.

Look forward to Martini Film, an open air cinema featuring some top films. La Dolce Vita? Blow Up? Barbarella? Er, no, Pretty Woman and Dirty Dancing... but if the sun shines we'll be there.

Cin cin, darling.

Martini Terrazza - until June 10th
Hanover Sq, W1
Noon to 9pm daily. To book tables, call the MARTINI Terrazza hotline on 020 8735 5130 or email MARTINI@rpmltd.com
