Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2.5 oz vodka
- 0.5 oz dry vermouth
- 0.25 oz orange liqueur (such as Cointreau)
- 0.25 oz fresh lemon juice
- 1 cup ice
- 1 piece lemon twist or orange peel (for garnish)
Instructions
1. Chill a martini glass in the freezer for 5-10 minutes or fill it with ice water while preparing your drink.
2. In a cocktail shaker, combine the vodka, dry vermouth, orange liqueur, and fresh lemon juice.
3. Add the ice to the shaker, filling it about halfway or as needed.
4. Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for 15-20 seconds, until the outside of the shaker feels very cold.
5. Discard the ice or chilled water from the martini glass if using, and strain the cocktail into the prepared glass using a fine mesh strainer or the shaker’s built-in strainer.
6. Garnish with a lemon twist or an orange peel by twisting it over the surface of the drink to release its oils, then drop it into or place it on the rim of the glass.
7. Serve immediately and enjoy responsibly.
