How to Make a Wolfram Cocktail

An interesting history behind the Wolfram Cocktail shows that it was invented in 1990 by the famous bartender of the Savoy Hotel in London, Joe Gilmore. He invented this classic drink in order to honor the election campaign of John Wolff, former Head Barman of the American Bar at The Savoy Hotel and a Chairman of the London Metal Exchange. Wolfschmidt, gin, dry vermouth and fresh lemon juice are the main ingredients of this startling cocktail. This amazing cocktail is more or less similar to the James Bond Vesper martini.

The bartenders around the world serve the Wolfram Cocktail in a unique manner in order to enhance its overall charm. For example, if a female asked them for a Wolfram Cocktail, they prefer to serve it in an ice-cold martini glass. On the other hand, if their customer is male, then they customarily serve the drink in a rocks glass. Read this article and make your own refreshing Wolfram Cocktail:
