Revelation (cocktail)
Revelation (cocktail)
The Revelation is a popular cocktail known for its unique blend of flavors. It is a mixed drink that typically includes gin, vermouth, and orange bitters. The Revelation cocktail is often garnished with a twist of lemon peel or an olive, and served in a cocktail glass.
History[edit | edit source]
The exact origin of the Revelation cocktail is unknown, but it is believed to have been created during the Prohibition era in the United States. During this time, many bartenders experimented with different combinations of ingredients in an attempt to mask the taste of poorly made bootleg liquor. The Revelation cocktail, with its strong flavors and aromatic garnish, was likely a product of this experimentation.
Preparation[edit | edit source]
To prepare a Revelation cocktail, the following ingredients are typically used:
- 2 oz gin
- 1 oz vermouth
- 2 dashes orange bitters
These ingredients are combined in a mixing glass with ice and stirred until well chilled. The mixture is then strained into a chilled cocktail glass and garnished with a twist of lemon peel or an olive.
Variations[edit | edit source]
There are several variations of the Revelation cocktail. Some bartenders substitute the gin with vodka or rum, while others add a splash of soda water or tonic water for a slightly different flavor profile. Another popular variation is the Revelation Martini, which is made with the same ingredients but served in a martini glass.
