One Sip Martini

Monica Berg | London

At London’s Tayēr + Elementary, Monica Berg and Alex Kratena take the notion of the mini cocktail to its logical end with their One Sip Martini. The combination of vodka and Ambrato vermouth is garnished with a blue cheese–stuffed olive and arrives in a veladora mezcal glass. The bar pre-batches and -freezes their version, but this recipe is built to serve one.
