I've covered this ground before, and do so again as a public service.
The business section of today's Douchepatch had a big spread on a new Houlihan's (yawn) restaurant. The article showed the photo shown here, described as Houlihan's "martini" flight -- a sampler of "Key Lime, guava, and chocolate Martinis."

One more time. An authentic martini is 2-3 oz. of chilled gin or vodka, served up or on the rocks. It may include a little dry vermouth, if you insist, but just a little. It is garnished with a twist of lemon, or an olive. That's a martini. Under no circumstances does it involve a wedge of fruit or sugar on the rim.
Guava. Jesus!
