1 | dash | Angostura Aromatic Bitters |

Comment: |
Vodka both fortifies and brings out subtle bready cereal notes in this complexly spiced cocktail. |
Variant: |
With 1 shot of Bénédictine B&B replacing D.O.M. and cognac. (it's not nearly as good as the recipe we've used.) |
Origin: |
This recipe is adapted from one by drinks historian, David Wondrich (thanks Dave). The Gypsy originated in New York City's famed Russian Tea Room, which in 1938 published a vodka cocktail booklet which included this cocktail. |
