Lyre's Espresso Martini

Our esteemed patriarch Lord Lyre esq. was present at the Groucho Club London when the first ever Espresso Martini was served.

Lyre's Negroni

It was 1919, and Count Camillo Negroni decided his favourite cocktail the Americano needed a little something extra. He swapped out the soda water for gin and thus the Negroni was born.

30mL Lyre's Apéritif Rosso
30mL Lyre's Italian Orange

METHOD: Stir briefly over fresh cubed ice

GLASS: Old fashioned
