Ideal Cocktail

Tonight we had an 'Ideal Cocktail'.  It was very good, one of our favorites.

Today I planted a lime tree we bought yesterday and watched some football on TV (the Saints won).
We visited our neighbors this afternoon for an "after-cocktail" drink - got to enjoy more Jameson's Irish! It's nice when neighbors invite you over. We enjoy the company.

The recipe for this cocktail (page no.101 from the Guide):

1 oz Dry Vermouth (Noilly Prat)
1 oz Gin (Booth's)
1/4 teaspoon Maraschino (Luxardo)
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice (home-grown Meyer, of course)

Shake with ice and strain into cocktail glass.
Serve with a cherry. 

Cheers
