  • I agree it's a bit sweet, but the flavor profile is promising. I added some lemon (3/4 oz) and egg white (3/4 oz), and a touch (1/4 oz) of Licor 43 to make it into a "creamsicle" sour. This brought it up to 4 stars.
  • A bit too sweet. Maybe adding another ingredient that adds a slight bitterness would improve this. — ★★★★

Notes

In the style of a light Manhattan with Tiki elements, the Swedish Punsch provides banana notes, with the Byrrh providing a slight bitterness balanced by the sweetness of Bourbon and Punsch.

  • Like a light Manhattan - perfect for a warmer weather sipper. With some tiki-vibes, this is ripe for alterations and changes (banana liqueur, funky rum, various bitters, etc.) — ★★★★

Pinball Racket

1 1⁄2 oz Rye
1⁄2 oz Mezcal
1⁄2 oz Campari
1⁄2 oz Cynar
2 ds Bitters, Bittermens Xocolatl Mole
1 Cherry (As garnish)
Instructions

Stir with ice, strain into a cocktail coupe, and garnish with a cherry.

Notes

A few people wrote down the first iteration of this recipe before I changed it on Instagram a day later, and they rather enjoy it. So I figured that I would include my first experiment. I am much happier with the second / the Cynar version of the Pinball Racket though, but your mileage may vary.

The Pinball Racket (Version 1)
• 1 1/2 oz Rye Whiskey
• 1/2 oz Mezcal
• 3/4 oz Campari
• 1/4 oz Maraschino Liqueur
• 2 dash Mole Bitters
Stir with ice, strain into a cocktail coupe, and garnish with a cherry.

History

In early 2020, I was inspired by the rye-mezcal drink that I just had in New York City as well as others like the Racketeer (already on Kindred Cocktails). I began tinkering, and after a few iterations over the course of two nights, I picked my favorite (see the notes for the first iteration). For a name, I was inspired by the Racketeer which reminded me of something I found in my town's library's historic room: a folder on the Pinball Racket. This Winter Hill Gang ploy was to go into establishments and strong-arm offer to put a cigarette, candy, jukebox, or pinball machine in; moreover, they told the store and restaurant owners not to worry about its upkeep or finances. I learned a lot more about organized crime than I did about my intended goal, namely the rum distillery that existed in Somerville, MA, up until Prohibition.

  • Good. A little syrupy. EDIT: I’m not a chocolate and cherry person, but this hits those notes. Further in, I’m appreciating it more.
