As promised, here is my own recipe for a Bijou. I have to say that I enjoyed the on-tap version I had at the Iron Gate restaurant better than this one, but that may be because I used green Chartreuse instead of yellow. You be the judge.
- 1 1/2 oz. gin (Old Tom or Plymouth recommended)
- 1 oz. yellow Chartreuse
- 1 oz. sweet vermouth
- dash of orange bitters
- cherry or lemon peel garnish
Combine all ingredients except bitters and garnish in a shaker with ice. Shake vigorously and strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Add bitters and garnish.
