History
Rosemary and sweet elderflower beautifully complement the gin botanicals, creating an interesting, approachable, yet slightly sweet "Martini".
This drink is an adaptation of a creation from 2003 at MJU at the Millennium Hotel, London, England. The Martini cocktail has its own historical details.
