  • For as simple as it is, this is very tasty. I used Catoctin Creek Rye, Cointreau, and homemade allspice dram.

Mighty tasty! I added a couple dashes of grapefruit bitters to poke a little fun at the allspice, and added an amarena cherry for garnish because, well, why not?

One barspoon of allspice dram didn't really assert itself in the face of 2 oz of High West Double Rye - maybe two barspoons.
