Dry and Rosso Vermouth, gin, lemon juice, orange liqueur and Aromatic-ish bitters. A delightfully garnish-less drink for those on the go.

Originally sceptical of the fact that it only uses 1/4 oz lemon juice, but the added sweetness from the orange liqueur helps bring that citrus flavour without the added tartness. If you look at the Imbiblia app, they have some history on the drink, including the lack of garnish. I like to think it’s because Journalists are always on their toes and ready to head out, garnished would take extra time that they don’t have. Most likely not true, but it lives in my head now….
