Yes. And your drink is called a "vodka martini"... kind of like a "lamb burger" is a burger not made with ground beef but rather lamb.

Nothing wrong with either I'll add.

My two favorite martinis are:

1. Hayman's (Old Tom) stirred with high quality dry vermouth. With a twist.
2. Old Raj shaken solo and then poured into a very cold martini glass where the vermouth has been added, swirled and then tossed out. With a twist.
