This customized Martinez cocktail recipe was created specially for Vya Vermouth by Brett Johnson of @tipplepics. Here’s what Brett shared about his Madera County Martinez:
The Martinez is about as classic as a cocktail can be. The first recorded recipe dates back to 1884! This legendary cocktail shines light on the versatility and foundation that vermouth provides in cocktails. To that end, I’ve selected both sweet and extra dry vermouth from Vya, a Madera, California based producer that has cracked the code on making some of the finest vermouth available today.
This tipple is best enjoyed with an assortment of appetizers in the company of friends. Cheers!
1½ oz. gin (juniper forward)
1 oz. Vya Sweet Vermouth
½ oz. Vya Extra Dry Vermouth
¼ oz. Ferrand Dry Curaçao
2 dashes Angostura Bitters
Orange peel garnish
1. Pour measured gin, vermouth, orange liqueur and bitters into a mixing glass. Add ice cubes to mixing glass and stir for 20 seconds.
2. Strain into a chilled coupe glass and garnish with an orange peel twist.
We had to try this Negroni riff from Eric Gigers because – tequila. Vya Extra Dry Vermouth mellows the bitterness of Campari while elevating its flavorful pairing with blanco tequila.
A delighted surprise of “Oh my God!” usually accompanies the first taste of this favorite cocktail of ours!
