Gypsy Rose

0

A stirred, gin-based coupe with dry vermouth and apple brandy, lightly sweetened with raspberry syrup and sharpened by Peychaud's bitters and a lemon twist. Created by Frederic Yarm in Boston, MA, in 2021.

Frederic Yarm created the Gypsy Rose in 2021 after spotting raspberry syrup beside dry vermouth, which suggested a Martini, and paired gin with apple brandy in the manner of a Pink Lady. The syrup also recalled the Florodora cocktail, which led to a name from the Ziegfeld Follies world: Gypsy Rose was the stage name of Rose Louise Hovick, who worked in the 1930s on the burlesque stage and as a Ziegfeld girl.
