Method

How to make Devil's Cocktail

Follow the 6 reviewed catalog steps in order.

  1. 01

    Chill a coupe and cut one compact lemon twist, avoiding a wide strip of bitter white pith.

  2. 02

    Measure the tawny port, dry vermouth, and freshly squeezed lemon juice into a shaker.

  3. 03

    Add plenty of ice and shake firmly for 10–15 seconds until the shaker is frosted.

  4. 04

    Fine-strain into the chilled coupe so no ice chips or citrus pulp enter the drink.

    Express the lemon oils over the surface and secure the short twist neatly at the rim.

  6. 06

    Confirm the exterior is clean and serve immediately while cold.
