RedClive

1 1⁄2 oz Gin (Four Pillars Olive Leaf Gin)
1 oz Elderflower liqueur
3⁄4 oz Lemon juice
1⁄2 oz Lavender syrup
2 oz Fruit (dragonfruit)
Instructions

1. Muddle the dragonfruit to get it very mooshy.
2. Add all ingredients into a shaker with ice and shake very vigorously.
3. Semi-strain into a frozen coupe glass ....... you want some of the dragonfruit seeds in the glass.

Notes

1. I wanted liquid during the muddle, but it doesn't happen. Therefore get it very muddled so that flavor & color are extracted during shaking.
2. A very "soft" flavor. The dragonfruit seeds make for a nice "textural garnish" of sorts.
3. A beautiful red color.

History

My first experiment with dragonfruit.

In honor of a Naval Academy graduate.

Slowly Goes the Night

1 1⁄2 oz Rye
1⁄2 oz Mezcal
1⁄2 oz Pedro Ximénez Sherry
1⁄2 oz Amaro, Cappelletti Sfumato Rabarbaro (Zucca would probably work here too)
2 ds Bitters, Angostura
1 twst Grapefruit peel (As garnish)
Instructions

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

History

I was inspired enough by the combination of rabarbaro and Pedro Ximenez in the Cold Was the Ground (that I found on Kindred Cocktails) to riff on it. I swapped the spirits for the rye-mezcal duo that has worked in drinks like the My Old Piano and the Intrepid and the bitters for Angostura. I also upped the sherry to the half ounce that I thought would work better the night before. For a name, I kept the musical theme and became inspired by Nick Cave, so I called this one Slowly Goes the Night.

  • Wonderful balance between spice, sweet, bitter, and smoke. Outstanding.

Bitter and smoky adds depth without dominating and grapefruit oils really add to the fruity sweet profile of the sherry. Wonderfully subtle and complex!

3⁄4 oz Orgeat
Instructions

Shake, strain, serve in coupe.

Notes

Nice tropical taste!
Fat 3/4 orgeat.
You can adjust orgeat to your taste up to 1oz but you'll need to bring lime to same ratio or more.
You can play with the ingredient's ratios to focus in one way or another...
Pine liqueur makes the difference, make sure to use a pine liqueur made of needles not stone fruits, you want it fresh!

Sour as hell, fruity as heaven

1 Cardamom

3⁄4 oz Suze
1⁄2 oz Orgeat
1⁄2 oz Pineapple liqueur, Giffard
Instructions

Muddle cardamom in tin, add ingredients, lot of ice, shake long. Serve in coupe.

Notes

Very sour, but it's the purpose in order to balance sweetness. Very nice interaction of orgeat and pineapple.

You can choose to muddle 1 to 3 cardamon depending on your taste.
At 3 it's overwhelming a bit.
