Dirty Flyer

1 1⁄2 oz Gin (gin infused with olive brine (see Notes))
3⁄4 oz Grapefruit juice (Ruby Red)
1⁄8 oz Sherry vinegar (Columela Solera 30 Reserva)
1⁄2 oz Lavender syrup
Instructions

Shake all ingredients with ice and strain into a frozen coupe glass.
Garnish with a tiny sprinkle of ground cinnamon.

Notes

1. The Gin. I bought a jar of Moroccan-style olives, poured out all of the brine, refilled the jar with gin, and let it "steep" for at least a week.
2. The Grapefruit. This particular grapefruit has a tiny bit of sweetness.
3. The sherry vinegar. I found this particular "high performance" version a few years ago and it really makes a difference. You don't want "vinegar." Rather, you want a very flavorful Sherry vinegar.

How sweet this end ? Nearly same part sweet and strong


i just made one adjustment and cut the orgeat back to .5 oz. i think that helps balance it out a bit more, so not quite as sweet as the 1st version.

  • Aside from being a brilliant drink, it really highlights GM's strengths compared to most drinks that call for it when any decent orange liqueur would suffice.

The two web pages give slightly different quantities of Grand Marnier. Both tend to be reliable, but I unfortunately lack Beta Cocktails to check on this.
