  • Nice taste. A bit cloying at the finish and on the lips.

Fenton's Phantom

1 oz Pimm's No. 1 Cup
1 oz Aromatized wine, Lillet Blanc
1⁄2 oz Swedish Punsch
1⁄2 oz Lemon juice
2 ds Orange bitters
1 twst Lemon peel (As garnish)
Instructions

Shake with ice, strain into a Collins glass, fill with crushed ice, garnish with a lemon twist, and add a straw.

History

Created for the low-proof section of Loyal Nine's cocktail menu. I wanted to put a Cobbler on for the warmer months, and Swedish punsch was freed up as we took another menu item off the list. I was inspired by how well Swedish punch works in two 1930s drinks: the Pimmeron with Pimm's and the Metexa with Lillet. To round off the drink, I added in some lemon juice and orange bitters and put it all over crushed ice. To play on the Cobbler as a cobbled ice drink and a shoe maker duality, I paid tribute to one of the lost factories of Cambridge, the Fenton Shoe Factory, that used to employ hundreds of workers in town. The Phantom aspect not only gave an air of mystery and somewhat suggested a lighter drink, it also acknowledges the leftover history concerns of an old factory site.

1790

3⁄4 oz Jamaican rum (Aged, preferably Smith & Cross)
3⁄4 oz Cognac
1 oz Sweet vermouth, Carpano Punt e Mes
1⁄2 oz Orgeat (May need to decrease/adjust depending on orgeat recipe/brand)
2 ds Bitters, Angostura
1 twst Lemon peel (As garnish)
Instructions

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

Notes

The sweetness and flavor intensity of the orgeat will dictate whether the orgeat volume should be dropped to 3/8 oz or 1/4 oz. With homemade orgeat, I enjoyed it at 1/2 oz.

History

In thinking about the Manhattan-like recipes from Pioneers of Mixing at Elite Bars: 1903-1933 that contain orgeat (see source reference for links), I decided to take the idea and include in elements from the 1919 and Japanese Cocktails. With a split base of Cognac from the Japanese and rum from the 1919, I opted for Jamaican rum to provide some funk and dryness to the mix. For a name, I dubbed this one the 1790 -- the year that the tropical almond tree was introduced to Jamaica.

sevyryelsdorn commented on 5/28/2021:

I used 0.25 oz Liber & Co. orgeat; if you are using that brand, I'd suggest going no higher than that without trying first. It was still sweet at that level.

BLBU99 commented on 12/26/2021:

First Used 1/2 oz bardaddy orgeat which was too sweet. Better with 1/4 oz.

Paranubes is a pretty unique rum, not sure it will be the same with anything else but you could try a less funky rhum agricole blanc.
