Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Chill the Glass

    Begin by chilling a rocks glass. You can do this by filling it with ice water and setting it aside while you prepare the drink.

  2. 2

    Combine Ingredients

    In a mixing glass filled with ice, combine the Casa Dragones Reposado tequila, Remy Martin 1738 Accord cognac, Carpano Antica Formula vermouth, and D.O.M. Bénédictine.

  3. 3

    Add Bitters

    Add 2 dashes each of Angostura and Peychaud's bitters to the mixing glass.

  4. 4

    Stir the Mixture

    Stir the mixture gently for about 30 seconds until well chilled and combined.

  5. 5

    Strain into Glass

    Discard the ice water from the chilled rocks glass and strain the mixture into the glass using a fine mesh strainer.

  6. 6

    Garnish

    Express the oil from a lemon peel strip over the drink and drop it in as garnish. Add a maraschino cherry on top for an elegant finish.
