This cocktail is also known as the 50/50.  Combine, in a shaker full of ice,  one part gin and one part dry vermouth.  Strain, pour into a chilled glass, and garnish with a lemon peel.

According to an internet search, this is a favorite cocktail of the Prince of Wales.  We learned today that HRH Prince Charles has been diagnosed with the Corona virus, which goes to prove that the no one, not even blue-blooded royalty, is immune from infection.

Cheers to Charles, and get well soon.
