1 1/2 oz Sloe Gin
1/2 oz Sweet Vermouth
1/2 oz Dry Vermouth
1 Dash Orange Bitters
Lime Wedge
Stir and strain.
I would suggest that you pour this into a thin, curvaceous glass, rather than a more angular glass like a rocks glass. I'm not sure about the taste, because of the Sloe Gin, it has that sticky sweetness that a fake colored liqueur gives, and it stays coloring the glass. I've come to love the effect perfect vermouth has on most simple liquor mixtures. I'm glad my distaste for dry vermouth in my martinis (which endures) did not prevent me from learning to love vermouth in all sorts of cocktails.
