By Jim Romdall, Vessel, Seattle

“The Dolin Bianco Vermouth is my new favorite cocktail ingredient. I wanted to create an elegant cocktail for summertime that showcased its wonderful light flavor. I started with the base of Martin Miller’s, a soft and balanced gin. The marriage of a little yellow Chartreuse and absinthe gives the drink a little sweetness and herbal tones without disrupting the balance or adding too much medicinal flavor. The celery bitters adds complexity and depth. The lemon twist provides aromatics and also accents the lemon-bitters combination. The resulting drink is extremely crisp and clean, perfect for a classy summer cocktail. It’s called The 5th Avenue because its elegance matches that street in Seattle, where Vessel is located.”
