History
Intense and leaning towards the bitter side of bittersweet. An aperitivo with character. Saline solution is essential for success.
This cocktail is adapted from a recipe created in 2021 by Nick Bennett, the beverage director at Porchlight in New York City, USA. The cocktail was listed on the bar's menu under the heading "Guzzlers," with the description "Light & easy...maybe too easy." The name is reportedly inspired by a Broadway play titled The Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder.
