GDA Vermouth

Ingredients

• A sugar cube in the glass

• Two dashes of Angostura

• 300 ml of GDA

• 150 ml of soda

• 300 ml of red vermouth

• Crushed ice

Preparation

The GDA Vermouth is a sophisticated cocktail that combines the noble character of Gran Duque de Alba brandy with the spiced freshness of red vermouth. A creation designed for those seeking an aromatic and deep experience, ideal for a distinguished aperitif or a stylish after-dinner drink.

We start by placing a sugar cube in the glass, to which we add two dashes of Angostura. This initial combination provides a bitter and sweet base that will balance the richness of the brandy.

We add 300 ml of Gran Duque de Alba, an aged brandy that stands out for its notes of wood, nuts, and vanilla, contributing body and elegance to the cocktail.

Next, we incorporate 150 ml of soda and stir gently until the sugar is completely dissolved. This effervescence lightens the intensity of the brandy and adds a refreshing texture.

We add 300 ml of red vermouth, which complements the mixture with its herbal aromas and spiced sweetness, enhancing the complexity of the ensemble.

Finally, we top it off with crushed ice to keep the drink cold and well integrated.

Garnish

The finishing touch is given by a sprig of fresh mint and some red berries. The mint provides an aromatic and fresh counterpoint, while the red berries visually enrich the cocktail and reinforce its fruity profile.
