Gibson de Provence

A Gibson is essentially the same recipe as a martini. The garnish is an earthy pickled onion with a hint of acidity, instead of a briny olive. In our version we play up the flavor of the pickled onion by adding a bit of shallot infused red wine vinegar from France. The vinegar gives the cocktail a slight blush.

Ingredients:

2 oz gin or vodka
½ oz dry vermouth
½ ounce A L’Olivier Shallots Infused Red Wine Vinegar A L'Olivier Red Wine Vinegar with Shallots
1 or 3 cocktail onions (pickled pearl onions)
