COCKTAIL RECIPE
Tuxedo
Tuxedo is an elegant classic cocktail made with gin, dry vermouth and aromatic liqueurs. Close to the martini family, this drink offers a balanced and sophisticated character thanks to its herbal and slightly spicy aromas.
The Tuxedo cocktail is one of the elegant classics that emerged in the late 19th century. The cocktail takes its name from the famous Tuxedo Park club near New York City. This club was one of the elite social venues where the rich and aristocratic of the period came together.
The bartenders working in the club's bar wanted to create a different version of the Martini-style cocktails that were very popular at the time. The use of maraschino liqueur and bitters alongside gin and dry vermouth gave the drink a more aromatic and complex structure. Thus the Tuxedo cocktail was born.
