Garnish:
Skewered Luxardo Maraschino cherry
How to make:
STIR all ingredients with ice and strain into chilled glass.
| 1 fl oz | Hayman's London Dry Gin |
| 1/2 fl oz | Green Chartreuse (or alternative herbal liqueur) |
| 2/3 fl oz | Strucchi Rosso Vermouth |
| 1 dash | Orange Bitters by Angostura |
| 1/6 fl oz | Chilled water (omit if wet ice) |
Review:
The original recipe, and indeed our old recipe, called for equal parts of main the three ingredients to create a powerful cocktail in both alcohol and flavour. Upping the gin but knocking back the Chartreuse rebalances this classic cocktail.
Variant:
Extensively the same as a Bijou Cocktail
Club Cocktail
History:
Adapted from a recipe in Stanley M. Jones' 1977 Jones' Complete Barguide.
