Bijou (Ritz Version)

This is the Bijou recipe given in the "12 Bottle Bar" book. It's in the "strong" section under gin drinks for good reason!

  • 4 parts dry gin (used Gordon's)
  • 1 part orange liqueur (Cointreau)
  • 1 part dry vemouth
  • dash orange bitters
  • cherry

Smells great. Pretty well balanced for a pure-spirits drink. Most online recipes show garnishing with an orange twist. I think this would work better than the cherry suggested in the book.
