The Missus

1 oz Rhum Agricole, Barbancourt
1 oz Cynar
1 oz Amontillado Sherry, Lustau Dry Amontillado
10 dr Bitters, Bittermens Peppercake
Instructions

Stir, strain, orange oil (discard)

Notes

My better half asked for a drink with sherry, so I made this. The peppercake bitters come from the Bittermen's experimental collection - if you don't have them, I guess you could mix together the first three ingredients and see what you think will tie the room together.

I really like this drink- the cynar/sherry combination is one of my favorites. I subbed a bit with what I had on hand; Lustau East India Sherry, Clement Rhum Agricole, and Adam Elmegirab's Spanish bitters. I'll make this again, thank you!
