History

Vermouth makes this Neo Martini a truer Martini than the standard. The name also honours Harry Craddock's Marmalade Cocktail, the recipe's inspiration. (An egg or egg white is traditional with an English breakfast.)

This drink is a variation on the Marmalade Cocktail, which appears in Harry Craddock's 1930 publication, The Savoy Cocktail Book. MARMALADE COCKTAIL. (Serves 6) Its bittersweet flavor makes this cocktail particularly fitting as a pre-lunch drink. Combine the following ingredients in a shaker: 2 Dessertspoonsful Orange Marmalade. The Juice of 1 big or 2 small Lemons. 4 Glasses Gin. Shake thoroughly and strain into glasses, expressing a piece of orange rind over each serving.
