The Adonis Cocktail: a low-ABV classic that’s as timeless as it is simple. Combining equal parts sweet vermouth and dry sherry, this historic drink is a balanced blend of nutty, herbal, and rich flavors.
Born in the late 1800s and named after a Broadway hit, the Adonis offers a light yet satisfying option in a world of bold cocktails. Stirred over ice, strained into a chilled glass, and garnished with a citrus twist, it’s endlessly customizable—but we like it equal parts (for now).
Discover why the Adonis cocktail deserves a spot in your rotation.
