Ideal Cocktail

This early-20th-century saltation connected the classical martini calls for saccharine vermouth alternatively of adust and a fewer dashes of maraschino liqueur alternatively of bitters. The grapefruit wedge garnish is key; it pulls each of the flavors together.

As always, retrieve that maraschino liqueur is not the foodstuff from jarred maraschino cherries.
