INGREDIENTS

- ¼ oz Italian Vermouth
- ¼ oz orange juice
- 1½ oz yellow gin
INSTRUCTIONS
Shake the ingredients vigorously with ice. Strain into a ice-filled old-fashioned glass. Drop a twist of orange peel into the glass.
NOTES
This is an old standby among the gin cocktails of the aromatic type that has more or less fallen into disrepute since prohibition. Some books recommend dry vermouth, some sweet vermouth, and some recommend both. Some books specify equal parts of vermouth and orange juice and some provide only for a slice of orange peel shaken with the cocktail or a slice of orange dunked in the glass. The recipe above is a fairly good formula for the drink.
