Minnehaha Cocktail

1 1⁄2 oz Gin
3⁄4 oz Dry vermouth
3⁄4 oz Sweet vermouth
1⁄4 oz Orange juice
1 ds Pastis (optional)
Instructions

Shake, strain, up. *pastis float is optional

Notes

The optional pastis, for me, is very dependent on the choice of gin

History

The Minnehaha (a Lakota Sioux word for "curling water" or "waterfall") is one of those classic cocktails that has 101 different recipes. This is close to the Savoy version, but I went lighter on the orange juice. I'm assuming there will be a lot of interpretations for this cocktail's build.
