That salt is non-negotiable.

Medicinal and jammy but it works. Sophisticated for a rainy night.

I thought that this was astoundingly good for how simple it is. I'll definitely make again. Edit-on second try, added a scant barspoon of allspice dram. Also delicious.

  • I like where this one is going, but the grenadine/fernet combo gets a little cough-syrupy for me. Worth a try though.

Caveat Emptor

1 oz Rum (Plantation OFTD)
1 oz Sherry, Lustau East India Solera (See notes for a substitute sherry)
1⁄2 oz Bénédictine
1⁄2 oz Cynar
1 rinse Campari (Glass rinse)
1 twst Grapefruit peel (As garnish)
Instructions

Stir with ice, strain into a Campari-rinsed cocktail coupe, and garnish with a grapefruit twist.
(*) An Amontillado or Oloroso will work here in a pinch but will come across as a little drier and lacking light raisiny notes. Lustau's cream sherry is a mix of Oloroso with a little Pedro Ximenez.

History

I recalled Maks Pazuniak's Warning Label from the 2011 Beta Cocktails book and was inspired to riff on it. I subbed out the 151 proof Demerara rum and Punt e Mes for Plantation OFTD and Lustau's East India Solera Sherry, respectively, for starters. I also split the Cynar with Benedictine as drinks like the Filthy Rich and Chachita were still fresh in my mind. Finally, instead of the grapefruit bitters, I utilized mole bitters and replaced the grapefruit notes by swapping out the lemon twist with a grapefruit one, and I kept Maks' original Campari rinse intact.

Huge fan of the Warning Label but this variation skewed a tad sweet for me, would consider either paring back the Benedictine or using a drier sherry.

Fleming Fizz

1 1⁄2 oz Blended Scotch
3⁄4 oz Lemon juice
3⁄8 oz Honey syrup (See "notes" below on this and the ginger syrup)
3⁄8 oz Ginger syrup
1⁄8 oz Islay Scotch, Laphroaig 10 (As a float)
1 twst Lemon peel (As garnish)
Instructions

Shake the first four ingredients with ice and strain into a flute glass with 2 oz of sparkling wine. Float 1/8 oz Laphroaig 10 Year and garnish with a lemon twist.

Notes

It will work as 3/4 oz of a ginger-honey syrup. Originally made with 1/2 oz honey syrup with 1/4 oz of our housemade zippy-intense ginger syrup, but with a less intense ginger syrup, using 3/8 oz of each will work.

History

I was inspired by the Penicillin and various riffs including a Flip, and I wondered why there were no smoky sparkling cocktails that I could think of. Therefore, I merged the Penicillin with the French 75 to make an elegant wintery libation. Finally, I named this the Fleming Fizz after the Scottish scientist who discovered the drug back in 1928, Alexander Fleming.
