For a sweeter profile, add a splash of simple syrup or a dash of sugar. Experiment with different types of sweet vermouth to find your preferred flavor. If you don't have club soda, you can substitute with sparkling water or seltzer. For a stronger drink, reduce the amount of club soda. Chill your glass beforehand for an extra refreshing experience.
