A Martini with a cocktail onion garnish. One story goes that it was created by a teetotaler American diplomat. In order to not seem unsociable at parties, he would have the bartender serve him water in a Martini glass, the onion serving to differentiate his drink from others. This is an edited extract from Spirited by Adrienne Stillman (RRP $69.96). Photography by Andy Sewell.
