In this, easily our longest episode, but it's absolutely worth the extra time because we talk about the delicious Bijou and also dive into a lot of things about what it means to be a bartender and be a guest at a bar. Also we gained fodder for our first bonus episode, so stay tuned for that because it was an absolute riot.

1oz Sweet Vermouth

2 dash Orange Bitters

Add all ingredients into a mixing glass and stir for about 15 seconds. Strain into a cocktail glass and garnish with an orange peel, lemon peel, cherry, or olive, according to your fancy. Enjoy!
