Today, I'll show you how to make a Martinez! Believed to be the evolutionary link between the manhattan and the martini, I believe this cocktail outshines them both. This recipe's heavy on the orange bitters, but I absolutely love it. I find using equal parts old tom gin and sweet vermouth helps to balance out the heavy hand of bitters. Definitely try this drink if you're a manhattan fan, martini fan, or simply enjoy a tasty cocktail. Cheers!

Is 1/4 oz of orange bitters too much? No. Also, I personally know the folks at North Shore Distillery who make the Scofflaw Old Tom Gin and they're good people - support them if you're in the area! Time stamps in the description! (And let me know how you make your martinez!) 🍸
