Income Tax Cocktail
🥃 Serve in: Coupe Glass
Gin splits its vermouth here between dry and sweet, brightened with orange juice and a dash of Angostura bitters and saline solution -- essentially a Bronx Cocktail with bitters added. Its name reportedly comes from the observation that the bitters make all the difference, like a tax you can't avoid. Well-balanced and citrus-forward, a favorite among bartenders exploring pre-Prohibition classics. Stirred and served up in a coupe.
