Adonis 1884

After a busy week you are craving for a tasty drink, but let’s be honest… sometimes you are really tired and don’t want to make too much fuss. 

The Adonis is a very old cocktail recipe that will always do the trick. For this drink you will find different recipes. The Difford’s Guide recipe calls for a 2/1 ratio, but if you have a good quality vermouth, you should at least also give it a try with a 50/50 ratio too. 

Adonis 1884

Ingredients
60 ml Tio Pepe Fino Sherry
30 ml La Copa sweet vermouth
2 dashes of Angostura Orange bitters

Method
Add everything to a mixing glass with lots of ice. Stir for 15 seconds and strain into a fancy wine or port glass. Garnish with a piece of orange peel… first give it a squeeze to spray some oils on the drink. 

P.S. I was out of fresh oranges, so had to use a dehydrated slice… nevertheless very tasty drink
