This may use your favorite gin, if you want to make it more historically accurate try Old Tom Gin or Genever to see what the old folks would have been using. The Martinez 1 1/2 oz Gin 1 1/2 oz Sweet Vermouth 1/4 oz Luxardo Maraschino 2 dashes Angostura Bitters Orange Peel The taste profile definitely brings in some vermouth flavor as well as a gin taste up front, the gin will impact the taste of course.
