This sweet and tart cocktail elevates vermouth bianco’s abundant botanicals and spices to create a delicate and aromatic drink with flavors of vanilla, citrus, and fresh berries. As vermouth cocktails go, this one simple and batch ready for your next gathering. At Apothecary in Dallas, bartenders use a centrifuge to clarify infusions and prevent separation. But at home, you can use a specialty enzyme called Pectinex (you can find it online) and coffee filters to give you the same high-quality results.
