Martinez (with London Dry gin)

Martinez (with London Dry gin) image

How to make:

STIR ingredients with ice and fine strain into chilled glass.

Garnish:

Orange zest twist

Comment:

This Martinez is aromatic, complex and very dry.

About:

London dry has been the dominant gin style for over 100 years and so by extension was the gin most frequently used to make a Martinez. We've ignored a similar fashion towards dry vermouth in such cocktails over the same period due to our preference for a combination of both sweet and dry vermouths.
