The Hanky Panky is a classic cocktail created in the early 1900s by famed bartender Ada Coleman at London’s Savoy Hotel. Made with gin, sweet vermouth, and Fernet-Branca, its name reportedly came from a customer’s impressed exclamation: “By Jove! This is the real hanky panky.”
Add gin, sweet vermouth, and Fernet-Branca 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 coupe glass.
Garnish with orange twist.
