| 1 1⁄2 | oz | Rye (go for higher proof) |
| 1⁄2 | oz | Applejack (or apple brandy) |
| 1⁄2 | oz | Dubonnet Rouge |
| 1⁄2 | oz | Amaro Nonino |
| 1 | ds | Grenadine (pomegranate concentrate or grenadine) |
Instructions
Combine in a mixing glass and fill with ice; stir well and strain into chilled cocktail glass. Twist a bit o’ lemon peel over the drink and discard, and garnish with a few pomegranate seeds.
From other users
- A bit strong with Wild Turkey 101. Used Carpano Antica for the Dubbonet and pomegranate molasses.
- Identical (except for amount of grenadine) to the "Solstice" cocktail in The PDT Cocktail Book. That recipe calls for .25 oz of grenadine.
- Not all that great, I used Rittenhouse 100 and instead of Nonino I used Averna. The drink just seems to fall flat close to the finish, maybe the amaro not melding in nicely there.

Not to snark, but two of the comments here made substitutions that aren't that similar. It's pretty good with the proper ingredients.

I think the key to this recipe is to use Brandy or Cognac over Rye. Then maybe up the apple to give it more zing.
