Experiment with different gins to find your preferred flavor profile. London Dry gins offer a classic juniper-forward taste, while more modern gins can incorporate citrus or floral notes.
Keep your gin and vermouth stored in the refrigerator for optimal freshness.
Consider using a jigger for precise measurements to ensure a balanced cocktail.
