Adonis

0

A dry, nutty stirred drink built on dry sherry, with sweet vermouth adding dark fruit and a dash of orange bitters for a bitter citrus edge. Low in strength and savoury-leaning, it sips slowly.

Similar names: Adonis (PX), Adonis Cocktail (Dale Degroff Variation), Black Adonis, Blond Adonis, Bronze Adonis, Scotch Adonis, Sips Adonis

The Adonis dates from the 1800s and takes its inspiration from a Broadway show that, at the time, had the longest run of any.
