Cocktail Description
The Snyder Martini is what happens when the classic gin martini gets dressed up with a hint of sophisticated citrus charm.
This elegant cocktail balances the botanical complexity of Beefeater London Dry Gin with the subtle wine notes of Timbal Extra Dry Vermouth, while Grand Marnier adds a luxurious orange undertone that doesn't overpower but rather whispers through each sip. The flavors unfold gradually—first juniper and herbs, then dry wine notes, finishing with a gentle orange glow that lingers pleasantly. It's surprisingly easy to make despite its sophisticated profile, requiring just a good shake with ice and a fine strain into a chilled martini glass. The Orange Whisper makes a perfect pre-dinner drink for special occasions or dinner parties where you want to impress without spending the entire evening playing bartender. It pairs beautifully with light appetizers like smoked salmon, mild cheeses, or even simple roasted nuts, and won't overwhelm delicate seafood dishes if you're serving it with the main course.
