Martinez Cocktail

Day 25 at the Cove

Olga and I played tennis this morning - before the rain came back.
The rest of the day, after lunch at a restaurant, was spent recovering from tennis!
It really is good exercise for us.

Tonight I selected a 'Martinez Cocktail' to mix.
  (found on page 120)

1 dash orange bitters
1 oz dry vermouth
1/4 tsp TripleSec
1 oz gin

Stir with ice and strain into cocktail glass
Serve with a cherry
Olga didn't like the bitters so much, but I liked this cocktail.

We had a wonderful guest to join us tonight, and she loved the Martinez ( and an after drink liquer-Anisette)!  She can come back anytime.


Enjoy!
