Prep time: 5 min
Yield: 1 serving
Cuisine: Cocktail
Ingredients: 1 oz Dubonnet® Rouge; 0.5 oz Gin; 2 dashes Angostura® Bitters; 2 dashes Curaçao Liqueur; 1 dash Pastis

A bittersweet, aromatic aperitif that balances Dubonnet Rouge's raisiny, quinine-laced sweetness with a bright lift from gin and Angostura. It pours deep ruby and is finished with a perfumed dash of pastis for an anise note and a maraschino cherry for a hint of fruit. A compact, spirit-forward sipper for fans of complex, classic cocktails.
