Vermouth Cocktail.
Into the mixing glass with ice put
three drops Angostura or Pey-
chaud bitters
one measure French vermouth;
stir until cold, and serve with a hazel
nut.
Vermouth is one of the mildest of
liquors, containing only about 20 per
cent alcohol, and may be served to
those who like only a very mild stimu
lant. If preferred sweet, use the
Italian vermouth, when a cherry is
served instead of a nut.
