Polar short cut

Just like many of my recipes, I found this in a comic book called, bartender.

The cocktail is said to be made to celebrate the new air route to get to polar in a short cut, or was it pass the polar, to somewhere else.

Nah, I don't remember.

Dark rum 1
Cherry Brandy 1
Dry Vermouth 1
-> Stir

Not very familiar taste for me, and wasn't enough to live up to my expectation when I read the comic book, but definitely a new try for me.
Say, taste of being an adult.
