The Greenpoint Cocktail

Be sure to use yellow Chartreuse for this cocktail, rather than green. The yellow is a little sweeter and provides just the right notes of honey to this iconic cocktail.
Servings 1 cocktail
  • 2 ounces rye whiskey
  • 1/2 ounce yellow Chartreuse
  • 1/2 ounce sweet vermouth
  • 1 dash orange bitters
  • 1 dash aromatic bitters, such as Angostura
  • orange twist, for garnish
  • Pour the rye whiskey, yellow Chartreuse, sweet vermouth, and both bitters into a cocktail mixing glass. Fill the glass two-thirds full of ice and stir briskly until well-chilled, about 15 seconds.
  • Strain into a chilled cocktail or coupe glass. Garnish with orange twist.
