Poet's Dream

I first encountered this drink in the Old Waldorf-Astoria Bar Days (1931), the Poet's Dream cocktail is a beautiful representation of how Benedictine can be represented in a cocktail.

Poet's Dream

3/4 ounce gin
3/4 ounce dry vermouth
3/4 ounce Benedictine

Garnish: Lemon twist

Stir with ice. Strain into a cocktail glass.
