91. Clove Cocktail


My interpretation:
  1.5 oz Cocchi Vermouth di Torino
  1.5 oz Plymouth Sloe Gin
  1 tsp Remy Martin VSOP

Shake with ice, strain into cocktail glass, and serve. — This is a recipe, not in JM 1910 or earlier, is from Straub, and is essentially the same as the Clare Cocktail (or Duo) but that it is shaken, not stirred. For more variation and interest I am trying the Cocchi amber vermouth here, and cognac instead of my standard German brandy. I like the colder, thinner feel here with the slight bitterness and the nice layer of foam from shaking.
