Cocktail

Often named "Father of the Martini," this historic recipe is nuanced and well balanced. It emerged in print sometime in the 1860s! The Martinez is rich and aromatic enough for a cold weather night yet floral enough for a hot summer day. It’s a great cocktail for someone that wants something a bit darker in flavor and richness but without brown spirits.
