A Dry Martini with a freshening zesty lemon burst, courtesy of limoncello. Don't let the generous splash of limoncello deceive you into thinking this is...
As a cautionary tale I share the sorry fact that I initially made this with Finnish Arctic Blue gin as we didn't have any London dry in the cupboard. I can attest that the recipe says "London dry" for a reason as Finnish Bilberries just do not marry well with Limoncello. On a happier note we have since made this with Tanqueray and what a difference that made! All up a nice riff on a dry Martini and something I will return to from time to time.
Simon, I made this with the above recipe, which was sweet. I then read David's comments on the other drink in which he said he reversed the measures of the vermouth and limoncello. It's a different drink, and better.
