A refined pre-Prohibition gin cocktail that balances crisp botanicals, citrus brightness, maraschino sweetness, and the aromatic depth of orange bitters. Elegant, dry, and timeless.
Shake all ingredients with ice until well chilled. Strain into a chilled coupe glass. Garnish with a lemon twist and a maraschino cherry.
Served in a coupe glass for a classic, refined aesthetic. Lemon twist plus a single maraschino cherry add brightness and color contrast.
Excellent with smoked salmon, oysters, shrimp cocktail, light canapés, and delicate seafood dishes.
Born in the early 20th century and recognized as an IBA “Unforgettable,” the Casino reflects the golden era of hotel bars and classic gin mixology.
Ideal for formal cocktail parties, sophisticated aperitifs, celebratory toasts, or as a classic pre-dinner palate cleanser before a fine meal.
Dry and aromatic. Bright citrus and orange bitters lift the juniper backbone of gin, while maraschino adds a subtle almond-cherry sweetness for balance.
Sophisticated, minimal, and confident — a cocktail for those who appreciate classic structure and clean flavor design.
Replace gin with genever for a malty, old-world version. Add a splash of Champagne for a light sparkling “Casino Royale.”
