This blog is mostly for me and my friends. I record dishes I think are share-worthy. Big nod to Chef John for his inspiration.

Turf Club Cocktail

This is a wonderfully balanced cocktail. It's a Martinez with dry vermouth sub for rosso vermouth with a dash of absinth. I highly recommend trying this one if you have the ingredients on hand. It's worth the purchase if you are missing only one. Music accompaniment: Have You Seen It In The Snow by Magnetic Fields.



2 ounces gin / I'm using Beefeater
3/4 ounces dry vermouth
1/4 ounce maraschino liqueur
10 drops (2 dashes) absinthe / I'm using Absinth ordinaire
10 drops (2 dashes) orange bitters / I'm using Angostura
Garnish: lemon twist

Mix all ingredients with ice and strain into a chilled glass. 
Garnish with lemon twist.
