This recipe for a Fabiola takes the classic brandy cocktail, the Metropolitan, to another level by adding Grand Marnier to the mix. It also uses the more delicate sweet vermouth, Cinzano Bianco, which dilutes the brandy and Grand Marnier without adding more sweetness than is necessary. If you were to make this cocktail with most other sweet vermouths the result would be almost too sweet and the vermouth would compete too much with the brandy.
Ingredients:
- 3/4 oz Cinzano Bianco Vermouth
- 3/4 oz brandy
- 3/4 oz Grand Marnier
Preparation:
- Pour the ingredients into a cocktail shaker filled with ice.
- Shake well.
- Strain into a chilled cocktail glass.
