Several nights a week, the Jazz Gallery is putting on early evening remote sessions where jazz musicians play and chat with the audience (limited to 15 people per show). I'm recommending them selectively, but check out the website for a full listing. This evening's show features pianist/composer Jason Lindner, one of the stalwarts of the Smalls jazz scene 15 years ago and still a force to be reckoned with.
MAKE A NIGHT OF IT: I'm feeling a Martinez tonight. Let's try Jerry Thomas's original recipe: pour 1 oz. Old Tom Gin (you can use regular Gin if you must), 2 oz. sweet Vermouth, and 1 teaspoon of Maraschino liqueur, with two dashes of Angostura or orange bitters (your choice!) into an ice-filled cocktail shaker, stir, and strain into a chilled Martini glass or coupe (or a Nick and Nora glass if you have one).
