Stir Gin, Cocchi Americano, Yellow Chartreuse, Angostura Bitters with ice. Strain into a coupe.

One day, I had some leftover Cocchi Americano and decided to create something unique with it. Inspired by Dale Degroff's Bijou recipe, I made a few tweaks: substituting green chartreuse for yellow and using Cocchi instead of red vermouth. To achieve better balance, I increased the amounts of gin and Cocchi in the mix.
