The Bronx cocktail, a gem of early 20th-century American mixology, hails from the cocktail scene of New York City. This classic drink combines the herbal complexity of gin with the dual sweetness and dryness of vermouth, rounded out by the fresh citrus burst of orange juice. Simple and elegant, the Bronx is perfect for any occasion, from casual evenings to elegant gatherings.
