The Coronation is a classic cocktail that was created by Harry Craddock and was first published in his 1930 recipe book The Savoy Cocktail Book. This Gilded Age recipe, which was named for Edward VII’s coronation, is traditionally made with a dry yet palatable mixture of fino sherry, dry vermouth, cherry liqueur, and citrus.
Add sherry, dry vermouth, maraschino liqueur, and bitters to a mixing glass.
Fill mixing glass with cubed ice.
Using a bar spoon, stir for 30-45 seconds until well-chilled and slightly diluted.
Using a julep strainer, strain into a Nick & Nora glass.
Garnish with orange peel.
