Today was a good day - drove to Baton Rouge to get some cocktail glasses (I broke one of a set we had) and had lunch at a French restaurant that Olga wanted to try.
To get back to the basics I picked a 'Claridge Cocktail' for tonight. It's found on page 65 of our Bartender's guide. I now think it would have been simpler to go in order, but skipping around is much more fun!
The recipe for the 37th cocktail:
3/4 oz Gin
3/4 oz dry Vermouth
1 tablespoon Apricot Brandy
1 tablespoon Triple Sec
Stir with ice and strain into cocktail glass.
This was pretty good and a sweeter drink than the last two we tried; maybe a bit too sweet. We'll try a different one tomorrow.
Enjoy!
