Come si prepara
1. Chill the Glass
- Fill your serving glass with cold water and a few ice cubes, or stash it in the freezer while you assemble the drink.
2. Combine and Stir
- Add the rye whiskey, sweet vermouth, dry vermouth, and 2 dashes of Angostura bitters into a mixing glass (or any clean, heavy-bottomed glass tumbler).
- Fill the mixing glass three-quarters full with fresh ice cubes.
- Stir smoothly with a bar spoon for about 25 to 30 seconds until the vessel feels thoroughly cold to the touch and the liquid is chilled and lightly diluted.
3. Strain and Serve
- Dump the chilling ice from your serving glass.
- Strain the cocktail into the chilled glass using a Hawthorne or julep strainer (a small kitchen sieve works fine in a pinch).
Guarnizione
Hold the orange peel skin-side down over the glass, pinch it firmly to spritz the fragrant citrus oils over the surface, drop the peel or discard it, then drop a single maraschino or brandied cherry into the bottom of the glass.
Versione analcolica
Swap the rye whiskey for 50ml of a spiced non-alcoholic spirit or zero-proof bourbon alternative (such as Lyre's American Malt or CleanCo Clean W), replace the sweet vermouth with 25ml non-alcoholic red aperitif (such as Martini Vibrante or Lyre's Rosso), swap the dry vermouth for 25ml non-alcoholic dry aperitif (such as Lyre's Dry London / Apéritif), and finish with 2 dashes of alcohol-free aromatic bitters.
