The Yale Cocktail is a classic and has a stunning blue hue thanks to the orange-flavored blue curaçao. It has more orange in it than the original Martini, which used a dash of orange bitters. You'll also find a recipe for a non-blue Yale Cocktail that uses orange bitters and maraschino liqueur in place of the curaçao.

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 oz dry vermouth
  • 1 1/2 oz gin
  • 1 tsp blue curaçao
  • 1 dash bitters

Preparation:

  1. Pour the ingredients into a mixing glass with ice.
  2. Stir well.
  3. Pour the ingredients into a chilled cocktail glass.
