This gin variation of the martini cocktail blends rich botanicals and citrusy notes from the liquor with zesty flavours, while its elegant appeal makes it a great choice for formal events. Serve it with an olive garnish to enhance its visual contrast to the lemon peel.
In a mixing glass filled with ice, add the gin and dry vermouth before using a bar spoon to stir thoroughly.
Strain the mixture into a chilled martini cocktail glass to prevent shards of ice in the drink.
Garnish with the lemon peel and olive before serving.
