Opera Cocktail
2 oz
A gin distilled in Plymouth, England. It is less dry than the more common London Dry gin, mainly due to more root ingredients that soften the juniper flavor.
1 oz
A sweet, aromatised wine-based quinquina. It is a blend of fortified wine, herbs, spices and quinine; 15% ABV.
0.25 oz
A belgian liqueur made with cognac, mandarine peels, herbs and spices; very similar in taste to grand marnier.
1 dash
A bitters made from Seville oranges, cardamom, caraway seed, coriander and burnt sugar.
Stir with ice and strain into a chilled coupe. #stir #straight
