Adonis, handsome cocktail

This old combination of sherry and vermouths has slipped off the favorite’s list. It deserves a second look, as would any passing Adonis. This is a low-alcohol aperitif and good accompaniment before or with tapas.

2 dashes orange bitters

Combine the ingredients in an ice-filled mixing glass until well chilled. Strain into a chilled cocktail or aperitif glass.
