The Gibson swaps the martini's usual garnish for a briny pickled onion, lending a subtle sweet-tangy edge to the cold, gin-forward sip. Stirred rather than shaken to keep the texture silky and clear, it suits a quiet evening or a classic cocktail hour.

Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 ounces gin
  • 1/2 ounce dry vermouth
  • 2 pickled cocktail onions, skewered
  • 1 cup ice cubes

Method

  1. Fill a mixing glass with ice cubes.

  2. Pour the gin and dry vermouth over the ice.

  3. Stir with a bar spoon for 30 seconds until the outside of the glass feels very cold.

  4. Strain into a chilled martini or coupe glass.

  5. Garnish with skewered pickled onions and serve immediately.
