A Spontaneous Libation for your Consideration

Fenway Sling

Created and posted by Rob Marais.
1 1⁄2 oz Gold rum, Ragged Mountain (Use any Barbados-style rum you like. Using Brugal gold might please Big Papi.)
3⁄4 oz Cherry shrub (Homemade, and red for the Sox)
1⁄2 oz Bénédictine
1 ds Bitters, Bittermens Burlesque (Change up to other fruit- or spice-based bitters ad lib. or per pitcher sign)
1 spl Seltzer water
Instructions

Build over ice in highball, toss into mixing glass and back to combine, top with seltzer, give brief stir.

Notes

Varies from Baker's canonical Singapore Sling by using tart cherry shrub instead of cherry cordial and lime, though a lime wedge squeezed and pitched in like Lester would be a nice addition. Named for my 'hood in Boston, and appropriately red.

History

Swizzled in state of deep thirst à la minute 7/5/11.

The Flight of the Negroni

The Negroni is indomitable. Attack it with skewed ratios, and it rallies. Violate the ingredients, and it stubbornly persists. I can’t think of another drink that you can screw up so thoroughly and still enjoy the result.

This history of the Negroni is disputed, but probably dates to 1919, where the Americano was stiffened by substituting gin for the soda water. Regardless of exactly who created the drink and when, the Negroni is the King of bitter cocktails. If you spy a bottle of Campari on the backbar, the bartender probably knows how to make a Negroni.
