English Rose Cocktail

Name: English Rose Cocktail
Prep time: 5 min
Yield: 1 serving
Cuisine: Cocktail
Ingredients: 0.75 oz Apricot Brandy; 1.5 oz Gin; 0.75 oz Dry Vermouth; 1 tsp Grenadine; 0.25 tsp Lemon Juice

Bright and fruity with a pronounced apricot-cherry sweetness softened by dry vermouth and a whisper of lemon; it drinks like a floral, boozy confection rather than a sharp martini. Presented up in a sugar-rimmed cocktail glass with a cherry, it’s visually elegant and worth trying if you want a pretty, dessert-style gin cocktail that’s balanced by herbal vermouth notes.
