Adonis

  • 3oz sherry
  • 1½oz sweet vermouth
  • 4 drops orange bitters
Stir, strain.


So forgettable I had to make it twice, and I still can barely remember it. Delusions of grandeur is the culprit here, from the name on down. It may have the look and feel of a classic cocktail, but there's a reason you don't see a lot of sherry cocktails around - it just doesn't mix. One sip is all sherry, the next all vermouth. Occasionally you might get a flash of the bitters, but they don't contribute much either. This is all smoke and mirrors, and not very convincing ones.

4/10
