History

A 2:1 Dry Martini, with orange curaçao replacing bitters for a subtle complexity.

The Snyder Cocktail is adapted from a recipe found in Harry Craddock's 1930 The Savoy Cocktail Book. The original recipe calls for 1/3 French Vermouth and 2/3 Dry Gin, with 3 dashes of Curaçao. It is to be shaken well and strained into a cocktail glass, topped with a twist of orange peel.
