Cocktail Colin says:
The "Olympic Spirit" is a sophisticated cocktail where the Forest London Dry Gin's bold juniper notes play beautifully against the rich, herbal nuances of red vermouth. A touch of yellow Chartreuse adds an aromatic depth, and the briny olive garnish ties it all together, creating a smooth and invigorating botanical masterpiece perfect for an elegant evening.
