How to make the cocktail Adonis

Adonis is a classy low-alcohol cocktail from the 1880s that was created by the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel to celebrate Broadway's first big musical hit. Named after the 1884 Broadway show "Adonis" which became the longest-running show of its era with over 500 performances, this elegant sipper combines dry sherry and sweet vermouth with a dash of orange bitters.

It's the perfect weeknight aperitif because it's simple, sophisticated, and won't ruin your appetite before dinner. You can think of it as the refined, grown-up cousin of your typical cocktail that lets you actually taste your meal afterward.
