Morning Cocktail

(I finally finished the patio table so it's in the picture tonight)

Another great Friday with friends playing tennis!  Olga had to come home and recover for a while after her match!

I decided on a 'Morning Cocktail' tonight (page 126), although I can't see myself having one in the AM.


The recipe:


1 oz Brandy
1 oz Dry Vermouth
1/4 teaspoon Triple Sec
1/4 teaspoon Maraschino
1/4 teaspoon Absinthe
2 dashes Orange Bitters

Stir with ice and strain into cocktail glass.  Serve with a cherry.  I even remembered the garnish this time.

Enjoy!

A note: All friends reading this (or even if not reading it) are invited over at 5 - or anytime- to enjoy one with us.)
