09/23/09: Straight from The Boogie Down

A once forgotten cocktail from an underrated borough; The Bronx was ranked number three in “The World’s 10 Most Famous Cocktails” in 1934. What happened? It was a rival to the Martini and it appears as though the Martini won, but The Bronx is making a comeback.

The Bronx Cocktail:

-2 oz. Gin
-1/4 oz. Sweet Vermouth
-1/4 oz. Dry vermouth
-1 oz. Orange Juice
-Dash Orange Bitters

Combine ingredients in a shaker over ice. Strain into a chilled cocktail class and Garnish with an Orange Twist.
