Notes

    • Choose a gin that you enjoy on its own and a sweet vermouth that has a good balance of sweetness and bitterness.
    • Use equal parts of each ingredient to ensure that no single ingredient overpowers the others.
    • Don't over-stir or use too much ice. Both can result in a watery drink.
Storage: If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Stir and pour over ice before serving. Do not freeze.
