20th Century

 

This is one high class gin cocktail.

 

-1 1/2 oz. Shmidt Spirits Viridian
-3/4 oz. Lemon Juice
-1/2 oz. Lillet Blanc
-1/2 oz. Creme de Cacao 
-Lemon Twist (for garnish)

Shake all ingredients with ice.

Strain into coupe glass.

Garnish with twist of lemon. 

There's something timeless about the look and taste of this gin cocktail. The Lillet Blanc gives it a dry white wine character, while the Creme de Cacao lends it a slightly bitter chocolate note. The lemon juice and gin, meanwhile, add in their distinctive citrus and floral notes, creating a drink that wouldn't be out of place at the Waldorf Astoria or in your own living room.
