The drinks could be anything they served; however, if you ordered martinis, they brought a medium shaker filled with ice-cold martini. It was, at the very least, a quadruple of their regular martini, a drink in which vermouth was present only if you worked really hard at imagining its being there. Those were the days. Now, I need a nap after a couple of drinks, never mind four.
