Montreal Cocktail (official city cocktail)

Stirred, spirituous and bittersweet. London dry gin and gentian liqueur in this aperitif-style cocktail reflect Montreal's French and English influences...

This is delicious. Never knew Suze and Aperol went together, or gin and rye, but they all do in this cocktail. Perfectly balanced between sweet, bitter and boozy.

Due to recent events I decided to try this again with Swedish gin, Finnish Rosita, French Suze and Canadian rye. Still great, one of my favourites!

I was suspicious of the gin-rye combo but this really works. Didn't have a fresh grapefruit but orange zest was fine and lemon would be, too. It's a testament to the committee that put this together that the recipe doesn't contain 15 different ingredients.

Very tasty. The Scottish influence on the city is clearly covered by its resemblance in colour to Irn-Bru.
