I have gin and sweet vermouth. What could I make?
Cocktail Colin says:
Given that you have gin and sweet vermouth on hand, you have a variety of classic cocktails you could create that celebrate these ingredients. The top suggestion is undoubtedly the timeless **Negroni**. This cocktail, rated at a high 4.84/5, is a true classic, originating from Italy and widely adored for its complex balance of sweet, bitter, and herbal notes. With equal parts gin, sweet vermouth (red vermouth), and Campari, this drink is known for its harmonious partner flavors and would make an excellent choice if you’re looking for something both sophisticated and refreshing. Typically served in a lowball glass and garnished with an orange peel, it’s perfect for either evening sipping or as a pre-dinner aperitif.
Another elegant option is the **Martinez**, which mixes 45ml of sweet vermouth with dry gin, a dash of orange bitters, and a teaspoon of Maraschino cherry liqueur. This cocktail, with a rating of 4.74/5, has a rich history that dates back to around the 1860s and is often considered one of the world’s oldest gin cocktails. It offers a slightly sweeter and fuller flavor profile compared to a Negroni, making it an exciting option for those wishing to indulge in a cocktail with historical elegance.
These cocktails are excellent starting points, especially given your current ingredients, and will provide a delightful mix of history, flavor, and artistry to your cocktail-making experience. Enjoy your mixology adventure!
