A mere four drops of Abbotts Bitters play a crucial role in this delicately sweetened and complex vodka-based cocktail

For the vodka drinker in your life! Great way to savour any fancy vodka you have in stock. I used a mix of Ketel one and Belvedere (to be fancy). The four drops of abbots bitters is spot on - good complexity and depth all up. Might try Jerry Thomas bitters and grapefruit twist another time! Could definitely have again. Don’t neglect the orange twist.

Yes I liked the Jerry Thomas bitters plus grapefruit twist very much. The sweet-bitter interplay making it almost a little like a vodka old fashioned, if such a thing could be imagined. … or if you’re hankering for a white negroni but run out of gin & Suze as I have! 😋
