Description
The Rolls Royce is a luxurious cocktail that lives up to its name. It is essentially a "Perfect Martini" that gains an additional layer of complexity and a subtle, honey-like sweetness from the addition of the French herbal liqueur, Bénédictine. The combination of the botanical power of gin, the balance of sweet and dry vermouth, and the unique spice of Bénédictine makes it a sophisticated and unforgettable sipping drink.
Preparation
- Pre-chill a coupe glass with ice.
- Add all ingredients to a mixing glass filled with ice cubes.
- Stir well until cold.
- Strain the contents into the chilled glass.
- Express a lemon peel over the drink and add it as a garnish.
