Not a very good Martini, but back then I knew no better. Some years later I misunderstood a doctor's advice to avoid beer as an instruction to drink more cocktails... at least, that's my story.
I suspect my story will also end with a Martini, but that one will be spectacular.

Lovely autumnal sipper. Calvados is the key accent. I only had cocoa bitters but among such a long cast I don't imagine it influenced the final production.
