Gibson

The difference between a Gibson cocktail and a ​gin martini is the garnish. Both drinks are made with gin and dry vermouth, but instead of the martini's olive or lemon twist, the Gibson is garnished with a cocktail onion. This simple change gives the drink a different undertone, transforming it from a briny olive to an earthy, light onion flavor. It's fascinating, and you may just prefer this recipe over the other.

A brantender gave insight to infuse your vermouth with cocktail onions. Simply drain a bottle of cocktail onions in a mason jar. Fill the jar with vermouth and allow the infusion to happen for at least 7 days.
