  • This has become one of my favorite martini variations, and I make it at home frequently. Especially good with St. George Botanivore Gin. Currently using Bad Dog Bloody Mary Bitters for the celery. — ★★★★★
  • Intriguing drink. I rarely enjoy celery bitters, so I muddled ~1.5" inches celery, + some leaves. Really good! Next time I'd use more celery, & a scant pour of Montenegro. Garnish w/ thin celery stick, tapered so it can spiral like a ribbon at the top! — ★★★★★
  • Muddled half an inch of celery instead of the celery bitters and it gave it a wonderful freshness and strong celery. This is a very good drink made that way.
  • Used Hendricks. Might be worth trying a lighter gin.
  • Made with Prairie gin and rhubarb bitters. Very good! — ★★★★★

Comments

Celery notes dominate. A challenging combination of orange, celery, sweet, and a bit of juniper.

Ramazzotti, no bitters - good.
Ramazzotti, fresh celery (muddle) - very good.
Amaro Santoni, fresh celery - exellent! Rhubarb is good here.
Lillet Blanc. Amaro Santoni, fresh celery, 1 ds Angostura - still exellent!
