Satan's Whiskers

Posted Sun, 07/20/2014 - 18:53 by Jon

This tastes like a screwdriver gone wrong, and not in a good, interesting way. Perhaps eliminate the OJ and up the bitters?

1 ounce gin
1/2 ounce sweet vermouth
1/2 ounce dry vermouth
1/2 ounce orange liqueur (try Grand Marnier or orange curaçao)
1 ounce fresh-squeezed orange juice
1 dash orange bitters

Combine the ingredients in a Boston shaker or cocktail shaker. Add ice and shake vigorously for 10 seconds. Strain the contents into a chilled cocktail glass.

DIY Vermouth

Posted Sun, 03/31/2013 - 17:18 by Jon

I vaguely followed this recipe: http://www.winemag.com/Wine-Enthusiast-Magazine/April-2008/Homem... using a pretty awful white that was left at our place at some party.

1/2 bottle white wine (I used the rest for cooking)
5 juniper berries
2 springs fresh rosemary
1/2 tsp herbs de provence
1/2 cup young brandy or eau-de-vie (I used some leftover juniper edv from our Italy trip to really go all-in on the botanicals)

Toast the herbs, then add the wine and bring to boil. Take off heat, cover and leave steeping overnight.
Strain, add the brandy... done.

Infuse the gin (or vodka) with 1 Tbsp dried mate tea using nitrogen cavitation. Allow to degas.

Make a martini

Martini

Posted Sat, 01/30/2010 - 14:41 by Jon

After going all-in with the "bow in the vague direction of France" portion of vermouth, I actually believe a good balance of gin and vermouth creates the perfect martini.

3 parts gin (see below)
1 part dry vermouth (Dolin, or sub in Lillet Blanc)
1 dash olive brine

Shake with cracked ice, strain and pour into a cocktail glass.

Garnish with an olive or two on a skewer, or cocktail onions for a gibson. The Columbia Room serves their signature martini with a twist and a dash of orange bitters.
