Cheers to the Season: Elegant Christmas Gin Gifts
As the festive season approaches, it’s time to raise a glass of gin (or two!) to the joy that Christmas brings. And what better way
Drink: Martini
The Original Gin Martini
You will need…
- 50ml Hayman’s London Dry Gin
- 10ml dry vermouth
- 1 dash orange bitters
Steps to make…
Add all ingredients to a mixing glass, and stir well. Strain into a chilled Martini glass. Snap over the oils from lemon zest and garnish with a green olive for the best of both. For the original taste – A warm glass is the martini’s enemy, so make sure to freeze your martini glass for up to an hour before making your drink. This will not only give the glass a frosted finish but more importantly will keep your martini perfectly crisp and chilled.
Enjoy!
