Chorus Girl
Jason Clapham, the creator of this tasty aperitivo, considers the Chorus Girl "A far more decadent drink than its prehistoric ancestor, the Martinez."...

I notice that Jason recommends to use cocchi dopo Teatro if available - as per his personal entry on DG for this recipe.

Hi Simon, the computer has produced an unhappy combination at How to make no. 2 here.

Thanks, John. Now corrected. It's going to take me a few weeks to complete the change to the steps in the method for all recipes. Monster job but worth the pain.

Lovely cocktail. Really nice gin sipper. Complex, but easy drinking. Crisp & clean gin botanicals, fruit, slightest bitter from both Cocchi Americano, then chocolate on the finish from bitters & my Cocchi Torino as well. Rounded, balanced cocktail plan to revisit.

Clapham's directions call for this drink to be stirred and not shaken. I agree with him, it tastes significantly better when the drink was a bit warmer.

Sorry. Now corrected with instruction to stir rather than shake.

Been hanging out for a while for this until I had all the ingredients. Since Canberra is in its winter sticks, subbed camellia petals for rose, otherwise to spec. Supremely well balanced and nuanced. Initial flavour is floral, delicate and ‘feminine’, then the richness and darker notes emerge. Brilliant balance of herbal, sweet, dry, rich and fruity.

Can I clarify what’s being called for with vermouth Di Torino? Any Rosso/sweet vermouth, or should it be a more full bodied kind? I use Dolin rouge as my standard sweet vermouth.

This vermouth category is intended to represent a style of rosso vermouth that's a bit more full-bodied than Dolin Rouge. However, if that's what you have, then I'd give it a go.
