Cocktail Note

It's late, so I need to document this before I forget about it. Why does cocktail inspiration always come to me at midnight? This is a riff on The Algonquin, but I honestly think it tastes better than the original.

-2 oz. rye (Bulleit)
-1 oz. dry vermouth (Dolin)
-1 oz. fresh squeezed clementine juice

Put everything into a shaker with ice, shake for 20 seconds, strain into a martini glass and garnish with a maraschino cherry. So dry and flavorful, it feels like drinking the '60s.

Drink up!
