Notes

The sherry vinegar. I found this particular "high performance" version a few years ago and it really makes a difference. You don't want "vinegar." Rather, you want a very flavorful Sherry Vinegar.

  • Good but quite sweet as written. Careful with a sweeter coffee liqueur. I made with Pierre Ferrand Orange Curacao as initial recipe called for Grand Marnier but might be better with Cointreau as it would be a little more drying.

As noted, too sweet as written. Added three dashes of Angostura bitters and it cut the sweetness enough for me to really enjoy it.

Norwegian Plum

1 1⁄3 oz Aquavit, Linie
1⁄2 oz Bitters, Fee Brothers Plum
3⁄4 oz Lemon juice
1⁄2 oz Simple syrup (1:1)
Instructions

Shake all ingredients with ice, double strain into a nick & nora glass, garnish with a fresh mint sprig.

History

First time using an aquavit and I thought it would pair well with plum bitters.

The name speaks for itself and it is aligned with other aquavit cocktails opting for a Norway-based prefix in their name.
