Hanky Panky Cocktail | Alcozon Signature 🍸
The Hanky Panky Cocktail is a timeless London classic created by Ada Coleman at The Savoy Hotel in the early 1900s — one of the first cocktails to balance the botanical clarity of gin with the sweet depth of vermouth and the bold herbal bitterness of Fernet-Branca. Alcozon’s version stays true to this elegant formula, delivering sophistication and harmony in every sip.

- Puerto De Indias Black Gin – 45 ml
- Carpano Classico Vermouth – 45 ml
- Fernet-Branca – 10 ml
- Ice cubes 🧊
- Orange peel 🍊 (for garnish)
🧊 Preparation Method:
- Fill a mixing glass with ice.
