AdInstructions
- Chill a coupe.
- Fill a mixing glass with ice and add the gin, yellow Chartreuse and orange bitters.
- Stir for an extra long time, until the drink is very cold and well diluted.
- Strain into the chilled coupe.
- Squeeze a lemon zest twist over the glass so the oils spread across the surface, then use it as garnish.
