How to make it

Build and Chill

  1. Place a large ice cube or fresh cubes into a rocks glass.
  2. Add the dry vermouth, crème de cassis, gin, and a dash of aromatic bitters directly into the glass.

Stir and Finish

  1. Stir gently for about 15 seconds to chill and blend the drink without overly diluting it.
  2. Express the oils from the lemon peel over the surface, run the peel around the rim, and drop it in.

Garnish

Expressed lemon twist

Make it alcohol-free

Replace the dry vermouth with a non-alcoholic dry vermouth alternative (such as Gnista Floral Wormwood or Martini Vibrante), swap the crème de cassis for concentrated blackcurrant cordial, and substitute the gin with a non-alcoholic botanical spirit (like Seedlip Spice 94).
