History of theAmber Dream cocktail
Dale DeGroff claims the drink dates from 1935, when it was published in O. Blunier’s Barkeeper’s Golden Book. Some wrongly list this as an alternative name for the Bijou, which uses Green Chartreuse and sweet vermouth. This one uses yellow chartreuse, dry vermouth, and varied proportions.
What Glass is anAmber Dream Served In?
The Amber Dream is typically served in a martini glass or a coupe glass or a Nick and Nora glass. I have also seen it served in a lowball glass but I wouldn’t recommend it as it takes away from the beautiful golden glow.

We recommend using Beefeater’s Gin and Dolin dry vermouth. For your Yellow Chartreuse, we recommend, well… YellowChartreuse. Angastoras makes an orange bitter and that’s the one we typically go for, but you can try whichever orange bitters you like.
