Louis Special Cocktail - Pineapple Week

The Louis Special Cocktail

1 oz gin
1 oz pineapple juice
1/4 oz sweet vermouth
1/4 oz dry vermouth

Shake and strain into cocktail glass.


A nice well balanced drink. The equal parts gin and pineapple juice blend nicely together. In each sip you catch every ingredient of this drink. First the gin and pineapple blending together, followed by the vermouths, especially the sweet vermouth, which works nicely with the sweetness of the juice. Finally at the end you get a more pronounced pineapple flavor.

Perhaps a good drink for those who claim to not like gin?
