And I’m not sure this one would win a majority vote in any case – it uses both kinds of vermouth plus gin, and I meet a lot of people who can’t stand any or all of those ingredients.

Recipe

  • 1 1/2 teaspoon sweet vermouth
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon dry vermouth
  • 1 1/2 ounces gin
  • 1 dash bitters

Fill a cocktail shaker with ice. Pour in the ingredients and shake until chilled. Strain the mixture into a martini glass.
