Bait and Switch

Chill the martini glass in advance by placing it in the freezer or filling it with ice water.

Add the gin, bianco vermouth, rhubarb cordial, aromatized wine, and simple syrup to a mixing glass filled with ice.

Stir gently until the mixture is well chilled and the ingredients are harmoniously blended.

Strain the cocktail into the prepared, chilled martini glass.

Garnish with a twist of lemon peel, expressing its oils over the surface of the drink before placing it elegantly atop.
