Harvard

1 1/2 oz. Brandy

1 oz. Sweet Vermouth

2 tbsp. Lemon Juice

2 dashes Bitters

1 dash Sugar Syrup

Shake the ingredients together with ice, then strain into a chilled cocktail or rocks glass.

Trivia: This is one of a family of 'Harvard' drinks, all of which contain vermouth as a main ingredient. We wouldn't go so far as to suggest that they'll make you smarter, but they are a nice variation on more common drinks and do taste good!
