Method

Cocktail Preparation

1

Chill glass

Place a coupe or martini glass in the freezer or fill it with ice water to chill while you prepare the cocktail (about 5 minutes).

2

Combine ingredients

Add 2 oz vodka, 0.5 oz dry vermouth, 0.5 oz fresh lemon juice, and 0.25 oz simple syrup into a cocktail shaker.

3

Add bitters and ice

Add 2 tsp orange bitters to the shaker, then fill the shaker about two-thirds full with fresh ice.

4

Shake

Secure the shaker lid and shake vigorously for 12–15 seconds, until the exterior of the shaker is very cold and the mixture is well-diluted and slightly frothy from the lemon.

5

Prepare serving glass

If you chilled the glass with ice water, empty it now. If using the freezer-chilled glass, remove it and set on a clean surface.

6

Strain

Double-strain the cocktail through a fine mesh strainer into the chilled coupe or martini glass to remove small ice shards and any pulp from the lemon juice.

7

Garnish

Express the oils of a lemon twist over the surface of the drink by holding the twist skin-side down over the glass and giving it a quick pinch. Run the twist around the rim and drop it into the cocktail.

8

Serve

Serve immediately while cold. Optionally offer an additional dash of orange bitters on top for aroma.
