Claridge Cocktail
Gin for strength, vermouth for dryness and liqueur to sweeten - a balanced combination

Having found the original 2:2:1:1 recipe on several books, I tried those proportions. While the flavour is delicious, it is indeed too sweet. I should know by now that I had better trust Simon’s adaptations! Will try again with the 3:3:1:1 ratio.
