Brittany

The name refers to the northern region of France, and an easy combination of London dry gin and French orange liqueur. The Brittany is fruity and bitter with a lot of orange zest flavor. It's a great before dinner drink. Here Picon Biere is used instead of Amer Picon which is impossible to find now. It is sweeter and less bitter. It's also less alcoholic, but it makes for a fine additive all the same.
  • 1 1/2 oz. gin
  • 1/2 oz. orange juice
  • 1/2 oz. lemon juice
  • 1/2 oz. Amer Picon (Picon Biere used)
  • 1/2 tsp. sugar syrup
  • orange twist
Combine all ingredients except orange twist in a shaker with ice. Shake and strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Garnish with the orange twist.
