To enjoy luxury on the regular, it doesn’t come cheap. Instead of being part of the rat race, trying to rack up the dollars, try the right lottery numbers. You might instantly hit the big time.
After your win, a proper luxury drink is in order. The Martini. Elegant and beautiful, enjoyed through the ages and all over the world (and on the silver screen), the martini is a drink that lets people know the drinker appreciates quality. This variant uses vermouth as its base. Light, with floral and rustic notes, dry vermouth is one of the most misunderstood ingredients. Often tasting horrible (due to being improperly stored after opening) this fortified wine adds flavor and a classic touch. Its lower ABV means that you can enjoy many! Sweet maraschino liquor and a splash of bitters balance out the vermouth and make way for brilliant botanicals stored in a great gin. This cocktail is stirred to a chill, which adds a silky-smooth feel – luxury envelopes the pallet with every sip. If it’s hard to find that winning ticket, mix this gem at home and raise a glass with friends.
(For true luxury switch out Barr Hill for JCB Gin).
