I am pretty sure I posted about this cocktail before or a variant there of. A smooth sip with a lovely kick.
The Ritz Bijou
-----------------------------------------
1 1/2 ounces gin
3/4 ounce orange curaçao
3/4 ounce French dry vermouth
Dash of orange bitters
Maraschino cherry, for garnish
Combine the gin, curaçao, vermouth, and bitters in a mixing glass with ice and shake well. Strain into a chilled cocktail glass and garnish with the cherry.
Note: to make a drier cocktail use 2 1/2 ounces gin and only 1/2 ounce curaçao and a 1/2 ounce vermouth.
Hope everyone is having a good start to the New Year. - JD
