This is another "vermouth cocktail". That means vermouth is the base and none of the base liquors you'd expect are to be found here. This cocktail is "perfect", meaning that it balances both sweet and dry vermouth (that's how you make a "perfect martini" too...). This is a well balanced, low alcohol cocktail that is a smooth sipper. It's probably good if you like vermouth if you're planning to mix this one. We really enjoyed it. Cheers!
