My interpretation:
1.5 oz St. George Botanivore
1.5 oz Martini & Rossi Rosso
1 dash Pierre Ferrand Dry Curaçao
Stir with broken ice, strain, serve. Garnish with twisted orange peel if desired. — This drink appears in the first JM 1908 with Ballor vermouth and a “high and dry” gin and brown curaçao. In 1916 the sponsored M&R vermouth and Gordon’s dry come in, and in 1933, curaçao brun being presumably more difficult to obtain, the brown color is dropped from the prescription (though not in a few other recipes). This is a decent house variation on the classic (sweet) Martini.
