Martinez

Considered the missing link between the Manhattan and the Martini, the Martinez is a smooth, complex classic that dates back to the 1860s. Often credited as the forerunner to the modern Martini, this cocktail swaps dry vermouth for sweet vermouth and adds a touch of maraschino liqueur, giving it a rich, slightly nutty sweetness. A base of gin and a dash of bitters round it out, making for a balanced, sophisticated sip. If you love a Martini but want something with a little more depth, the Martinez is your drink.
