Genovese Martini

Written By Daniel Zajic

GENOVESE MARTINI

  • 1½ oz. / 45 ml. gin (St. George Botanivore)

  • 1 oz. / 30 ml. white vermouth

  • ½ oz. / 15 ml. Basil Eau De Vie (St. George Aqua Perfecta)

METHOD
add all ingredients to mixing glass / stir with ice until chilled / strain into a coupe or Nick and Nora / garnish with basil leaf

ABOUT
This is basically a basil martini with all flavor, no fluff. It’s a savory sipper that I’ll be making on these summer nights ahead. I would go for a non-juniper heavy gin here if you can’t get Botanivore. Recipe found on @stgeorgespirits website. Cheers y’all!
