Ingredients
- 30 ml Aquavit
- 30 ml Dry sherry
- 30 ml Cynar
- 2 dashes Peach bitters
- Garnish Lemon twist
Preparation
- Stir all ingredients with ice.
- Strain into a chilled coupe 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 Trident cocktail was created in the early 2000s, showcasing a blend of aquavit and dry sherry, reflecting the growing interest in Scandinavian spirits. It gained recognition for its complex flavor profile and is often associated with the craft cocktail movement.
