1 oz Castle & Key London Dry
0.5 oz Angostura Bitters
0.5 oz Western Grace brandy
0.5 oz Dolin Rouge
Stir well (about 30 seconds) in mixing-glass filled 1/2 full with ice, strain into cocktail glass, serve. — This interesting, bitter-leaning aperitif-style cocktail is borrowed from Straub 1913 for JM 1916. The Angostura gives it a big cardamom spice, which is immediately balanced by the sweet round qualities of the brandy and red vermouth. Nothing to do with the Fox Trot, which is essentially a Daiquiri with curaçao instead of sugar.
