Built on a split base of Old Tom and London dry gins, Harrison Ginsberg's take on the Martini's predecessor is made for the modern era (via punch_drink)
, sweet vermouth and maraschino liqueur. The classic never achieved the popularity of its successor, perhaps because of its relatively sweet profile. But Ginsberg views the drink’s richness as a positive: “It could be an aperitif, a digestif,” he explains. “It’s one of those cocktails that could go both ways.”that sidesteps the common criticism that the Martinez is too sweet. His recipe has been revisited and tweaked for nearly a decade.
Today, his version starts with Porter’s Old Tom gin, which is made in Scotland and has tropical notes of passion fruit, guava and pineapple, along with white tea and almond. “It has this beautiful florality to it and a fruit note that plays nicely with one of the other key components in a Martinez: the maraschino,” Ginsberg explains. But the Old Tom on its own wasn’t enough; it needed the juxtaposition of a classic London dry gin, specifically Tanqueray.
The rest of the recipe is fairly straightforward: an ounce and a half of “rich and bold” Carpano Antica, finished with a lemon twist garnish. “I’ve seen it many ways—orange peel, cherry,” notes Ginsberg. But he prefers a lemon twist. “Any time you have a sweeter-style drink, lemon brightens it up.”
