V, L, and I are the martini sisters. Val likes regular martinis; Leucy likes a longer stemmed glass, and; Isobella (like the olive company) likes a regular martini with an olive. (Relevance: Valine's side chain looks like a martini glass without an olive; Leucine's extra C represents the longer stem, and; Isoleucine's side chain is like Valine's martini glass with an olive extension.) When I was learning them, this helped me memorize their structures.
