blonde on blonde

1 1/2 oz Dorothy Parker Gin (Tanqueray Malacca)
1/2 oz Elderflower Liqueur (St. Elder)
1/2 oz Fino Sherry (Tio Pepe)
1/2 oz Blanc Vermouth (Dolin)

Stir with ice, strain into a Nick & Nora glass, and garnish with a grapefruit twist perched on the edge of the glass.Two Thursdays ago, I returned to the online recipe flashcard set for Raines Law Room in Manhattan, and I was lured in by the Blonde on Blonde that was like Phil Ward's Elder Fashioned expanded into a Martini of sorts down to the grapefruit twist. I was able to find menu and drink photos for this drink on Yelp dating to 2019, and it was probably named after the Bob Dylan song just like Scott Holliday's Blonde on Blonde at Rendezvous. In the glass, this Blonde on Blonde approached the nose with a grapefruit, floral, and pine bouquet. Next, semi-sweet white grape and grapefruit notes on the sip flipped into gin, herbal, savory, floral, and grapefruit flavors on the swallow.
