Altered the OG recipe a little.

1oz. Gray Whale Gin
1-2/3oz. Dassai 45 Junmai Daiginjo Sake
1/3oz. PF Dry Curaçao
4 dash. The Bitter Truth Cucumber bitters
2 drops. 4:1 Saline

We lacked the cucumber for garnish, so I added the bitters, which helped modulate the sweetness. The saline brought it all together and merged nicely with marine influenced gin. The sake is a good one and di not get lost in shuffle at all.

Absolutely delicious, but those quantities make a fairly big drink for something meant to be served up - it’s like a normal 5:1 martini but with an extra two parts. I might suggest this is two drinks, or otherwise use the same proportions but scaled down? Or of course you can also drink the whole thing as written, but either it has to be drunk too fast for wisdom or it will be unpleasantly warm by the time you’re done!

Or you could always serve it with a sidecar in an ice-filled bowl. Just sayin’.

Thanks, Melissa. I agree re volume and I'll revisit this recipe.
