Embarking on a rediscovery of classic cocktails, I decided to start with the Algonquin. The Algonquin Hotel was an icon to me as a young administrative assistant coming to NYC in the 1980s. I like to picture intellectual types hunched together around a Round Table, drinking a cool but strong drink made of rye whiskey, vermouth and pineapple juice. So here you go--let me know how you like it!


Ingredients

  • 1.5 ounce Rye whiskey
  • .75 ounce Dry vermouth
  • .75 ounce Unsweetened pineapple juice

Directions

  • Step 1

    Combine ingredients with ice in a cocktail shaker. Stir vigorously but don’t shake (shaking will make the pineapple juice foam).

  • Step 2

    Strain into a martini glass.
