Shawn C commented on 2/12/2025:

Curated and published. Found a reference to Food52 website on this collaboration in 2020. Grapefruit twist is the correct garnish, and helps differentiate from the "New Friend" (w/ Rye, Aperol, Cocchi Americano, orange twist garnish.) As with most Lillet blanc or Aperol recipes this riff on the Old Pal is quite light. That can make it approachable for those put off by Campari, but it can also be limiting to those seeking more. I have tested it with three other white quinquina's: Cocchi Americano, Mattei Cap Corse Blanc, and Kina l'Aero d'Or trying to find the "Goldilocks" solution. Cocchi's cinnamon is too dominant here, while the Kina is too sweet. To my palate (and my wife's) the Cap Corse was the best balanced of all, emphasizing the wine base with more depth and bitterness than Lillet. However, the Lillet is my second choice.

Bobcat's Tail

1 1⁄2 oz Rye
1⁄2 oz Islay Scotch (Or any smoky Scotch)
3⁄4 oz Lime juice
1⁄2 oz Maple syrup
1⁄2 oz Allspice Dram
2 ds Bitters, Angostura
Instructions

Shake with ice and strain into a cocktail coupe.

History

I became inspired by the maple-allspice dram combination that I recently had in the Fireside Chat. The allspice dram component got me riffing on the Lion's Tail, and maple boils made me think of smoke, so a touch of Islay whisky fit the bill. Moreover, the maple syrup made me wonder what wildcats live in syrup producing areas, and naming this after a cat with little or no tail seemed ironic.
