Invented in 2008 by Willy Shine at Contemporary Cocktails Inc. in New York City, the Two-One-Two cocktail pays homage to NYC’s 212 area code and the recipe’s precise measurement in ounces. This delightful libation offers an earthy taste with a refreshing twist of grapefruit.
The Two-One-Two is a masterpiece of simplicity with a captivatingly intricate flavor profile. It combines one of tequila’s most delightful companionship of fresh grapefruit juice and the zesty Italian amaro Aperol, a bitter liqueur infused with vibrant orange peel and rhubarb. With its sunny appearance and tangy, crisp flavor, the Two-One-Two is an absolute must-have for your summer drink repertoire.
