that I believe I invented:

1 1/2 oz Tanqueray Gin
1 oz Sweet Vermouth
1/2 oz Triple Sec

Shake with ice in a cocktail shaker and strain into a chilled glass

This cocktail is great because you can taste all three ingredients when you sip it. I really like it, which is surprising because I really don't like gin at all. Sipping gin straight is disgusting to me. But when you contrast it with sweet modifiers like Italian vermouth & triple sec, the result is interesting and delicious.
