This variation to a classic martini ups the amount of vermouth in the blend by adding almost a shot of Noilly Ambre; an apéritif that is something of a combination between dry and sweet vermouth.

Ingredients

1-1/4 shots gin
1 shot dry vermouth
3/4 shot Noilly Ambre
2 dashes orange bitters
lemon twist to garnish

Directions

Place all of the ingredients, except for the lemon twist, into a cocktail shaker filled with ice.
Slowly stir the mixture for 30 seconds and then strain into a cocktail glass.
Garnish the drink with the lemon zest twist and then serve immediately.
