Riff on Martini

Ingredients

  • Lustau Papirusa

    Manzanilla Sherry

    1½ oz
  • Bombay Sapphire

    Gin

    ¾ oz
  • Gordon's London Dry Gin

    Gin

    ¾ oz
  • Orange bitters
    1 dash
  • Jacobsen Sea Salt Solution

    Saline Solution

Method

Add the ingredients, except the sea salt solution, to a mixing glass with ice. Stir to chill and strain into a chilled glass. Express and discard a lemon twist over the top and spray the sea salt solution. Garnish.

Notes

A savory take on a low-proof classic. Manzanilla sherry replaces dry vermouth for a seriously dry, saline finish. Sea salt solution: combine 4 parts hot water with 1 part Jacobsen sea salt, stir until dissolved, decant into a spritzer or atomizer.
