The Breakfast Martini
(from BeautifulCocktails, published by Bombay Gin)
Created by Mr.Salvatore Calabrese at the Lanesborough Hotel Library Bar, London
½ shot Martini Extra-Dry vermouth
2 ½ shots Bombay Sapphire gin
¼ shot freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 spoon of light orange marmalade
Stir vermouth with ice in a mixing glass and strain todiscard excess vermouth, leaving only a coating on the ice. Pour Bombay Sapphire into mixing glasscontaining coated ice, stir and strain into a frosted glass. Garnish with orange peel.
N.b.: As a literalist, I find the concept of a Breakfast Martini fairly shocking, but would still prefer this cocktail as a breakfast drink (or more likely, breakfast itself after a night on the tiles) than something to be consumed later in the day. However, I do not care for Bombay Sapphire gin. I strongly prefer regular Bombay.
