Short Rib

2 oz Blanco tequila (jalapeno infused, see note)
3⁄4 oz Lime juice
1 oz Simple syrup
3⁄4 t Pomegranate molasses
Instructions

Shaken, double strained into coupe, no garnish.

Notes

I used 2 big jalapeño slices, with seeds, per 2oz of Don Julio Anejo Tequila infused for 1 or 2 days. Gives a nice pepper flavour but no heat . Once I left the infusion or over a week and it was too hot for me to handle, so just taste your infusion and decide based on your taste. Might try with agave nectar instead of simple syrup.

HallA commented on 8/22/2022:

This is really good. The rum and orgeat make the sweet vermouth and campari a little gentler for those who oppose either ingredient but don't bury them for those of us who are a big fan of both. Really delicious.

Tokyo Station

7⁄8 oz Gin, Tanqueray
2⁄3 oz Suze
2 t Lime juice
1 bsp Simple syrup
1 bsp Grenadine
1 wdg Lime (as garnish)
Instructions

Shake and strain into a Martini glass. Garnish.

Notes

Tip: When you’re halfway through the cocktail, squeeze the lime wedge into the remainder. This transforms the cocktail so the lime dominates a bit more over the Suze. The two tastes of the Tokyo Station are supposed to mimic a train coming and going.

It has a nice balance of sweet sour and bitter.
I tried it with a half salted rim, and that elevated it more.

  • Might want to specify the rum or rum family - the rum I unfortunately chose (Diplomatico) made this undrinkably sweet; I was able to balance it to ok with about another 1/2 oz of lemon juice.
  • Boozy lemon-tea flavors. Sweet and almost fruity at sip, long finish brings in balancing tannic and bitter flavors.

1⁄4 oz Maraschino Liqueur
1⁄8 oz Orange flower water

Martini fiero is a kind of grapefruit aperitivo.

I've used Barbancourt 50% 11y from silver seal.

Maraschino and apricot eau de vie work very well.
