This works surprisingly well. One of the better baijiu cocktails I've had. I was using 20ml of grapefruit juice, because it was freshly squeezed and it was hard to get the exact amount with the measuring cups I used.

marquisexb commented on 5/20/2023:

This is really good. I was looking for something to do with the Nixta, and this fit the bill. I substituted Mezcal for the Raicilla, and did a heaping 1/4 oz of Ancho. Still it was great! Nice and bright flavors here.

Shawn C commented on 6/28/2023:

Quite tasty, using ingredients I am keen on (Ancho Reyes, cilantro). I used Sotol since I lacked Raicilla. I dropped the lime to 1/2+ oz since there is not much sweetness to balance the acidity, and my early season limes are quite tart and not that juicy yet. I think this could use 1/4 oz of simple syrup to finish it more like street corn, but otherwise it is spot on. Instructions aren't clear, so I salted the rim, although a mix of sugar and salt on the rim might be interesting...

The cilantro accentuates the corn flavor of the Nixta and the Hacienda de Chihuahua Sotol I used blended well with both. This is precisely the sort of flavor profile I was hoping for when I picked up some Nixta.

endless_optimism commented on 3/28/2024:

Best Nixta cocktail I've had so far, even though I subbed Mezcal for Raicilla and had to leave out the cilantro because I didn't have any. Looking forward to trying it again when I get some!

Romancing the Stone

1 oz Scotch
3⁄4 oz Cardamaro
3⁄4 oz Amaro, Cappelletti Sfumato Rabarbaro (Sfumato or Zucca)
1⁄2 oz Herbal liqueur, Green Chartreuse
2 ds Orange bitters
1 twst Grapefruit peel (As garnish)
Instructions

Stir with ice, strain into a rocks glass with ice, and garnish with a grapefruit twist.

Notes

Mellows nicely with ice melt.

History

In scanning my liquor shelves, I conjured up an Scotch abstraction of the Bijou taken in the Caustic Negroni direction. Since Scotch goes well with amari like Sfumato in the Preceptor and Cardamaro in the Great King Street, Green Chartreuse and orange bitters would round out the combination nicely. Moreover, Bijou means jewel, so I dubbed this one the Romancing the Stone after the 1984 romantic adventure comedy.

Shawn C commented on 12/12/2022:

Clever combination and with thoughtful proportions. I wasn't sure if I would like this, since Green Chartreuse is often a bully in classic cocktails; but the Sfumato, Cardamaro, and Scotch are intense enough on their own to tame the strong herbal Chartreuse. Even the Angostura Orange Bitters (from the original post) were a good match for the other components. Of course Sfumato and Cardamaro are intense, so this is something one should be in the state of mind for.
