Dishwater

1 1⁄2 oz Gin, Bombay Sapphire
3⁄4 oz Crème de Violette, Rothman & Winter
3⁄4 oz Sweet vermouth (Vya)
1⁄2 oz Maraschino Liqueur, Luxardo
1⁄4 oz Balsamic Vinegar (Trader Joe's "Gold" Aceto Balsamico Di Modena)
Instructions

Shake with ice and strain into a frozen coupe glass.

Notes

The color of this one is quite "unusual" to say the least. A few days ago I had some friends over and to make things more frivilous: I added a couple of drops of green food color to the gin ..... why not.

Today, I used the green gin in this new mixture ....... and got the dishwater color.

History

Quite the mash of seemingly "normal" ingredients ....... which produced a darkish greenish dishwater color. The very tasty flavor is in stark contrast.

interesting but a bit out of balance for me. Luxardo overpowers. I upped the balsamic which helped.
