Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Chill the Glass

    Begin by chilling a cocktail glass. You can do this by filling it with ice water and letting it sit while you prepare the cocktail.

  2. 2

    Mix the Ingredients

    In a cocktail shaker, combine 2 oz of gin, 1 oz of Luxardo Maraschino liqueur, and 0.5 oz of simple syrup.

  3. 3

    Add Bitters

    Add 2 dashes of Peychaud's bitters to the cocktail shaker.

  4. 4

    Shake

    Fill the shaker with ice and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds until well chilled.

  5. 5

    Strain

    Discard the ice water from the chilled glass and strain the cocktail mixture into the glass.

  6. 6

    Garnish

    Take a strip of lemon zest and twist it over the cocktail to release its oils. Drop it into the drink as garnish.
