Breakfast Martini

Orange marmalade brings both peel and sweetness to this gin sour. It needs to be dispersed before the main shake, then strained cleanly so the drink has a citrus preserve accent without large pieces of rind.

Light golden Breakfast Martini in a coupe with an orange wedge, no serving ice.

Active preparation: 3 minutes

Ingredients

  • 52.5 ml London dry gin
  • 15 ml Cointreau
  • 15 ml Fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tsp Orange marmalade

Instructions

  1. Chill a coupe. Stir the marmalade with gin, Cointreau and lemon in a shaker to loosen the preserve.
  2. Add cubed ice and shake firmly until thoroughly chilled.
  3. Fine-strain into the coupe to remove rind pieces.
  4. Set the orange wedge on the rim and serve without ice.
