Poker Cocktail.
1/2 Italian Vermouth. (1 oz Punt e Mes)
1/2 Bacardi Rum. (1 oz Havana Club 7 Year)
Shake (I stirred) well and strain into cocktail glass.

I decided to not gamble too much with the Poker Cocktail and upped the ante with Punt e Mes and an aged rum.

While I wouldn’t call this exactly a royal flush or four of a kind, it certainly beats a pair of deuces, hands down.

This post is one in a series documenting my ongoing effort to make all of the cocktails in the Savoy Cocktail Book, starting at the first, Abbey, and ending at the last, Zed.
