Ingredients
- 45 ml Fino sherry
- 45 ml Dry vermouth e.g. Noilly Prat, Dolin Dry
- 1 dash Orange bitters
- 1 dash Angostura bitters
- Garnish Lemon twist
Preparation
- Stir all ingredients with ice.
- Strain into a Nick & Nora glass. Don't know how? Pour the drink through a strainer (or the built-in strainer on your shaker) to catch the ice and any solids.
- Garnish with lemon twist. Use a peeler or knife to cut a wide strip, avoiding the white pith. Twist it over the drink to release the oils, then drop it in.
Origin Story
The Bamboo Cocktail is thought to have originated in the late 19th century, likely in Japan or the United States, as bartenders began experimenting with sherry and vermouth. Its unique blend of flavors reflects the cross-cultural influences of that era.
