Verdita Fizz

1 3⁄4 oz Ancho Reyes Verde chile liqueur
3⁄4 oz Blanco tequila, Cimarron
1 oz Lime juice
3⁄4 oz Pineapple syrup
1 Egg white
1⁄2 oz Cream
2 oz Soda water
Instructions

Add all the ingredients except the cream and soda water to your tin. Whip shake with 2 cubes until nearly dissolved (around a minute). Pop the tin, add the cream and some cracked ice, and vigorously shake for 15 seconds. Strain into a Fizz or Collins glass (no ice), then slowly add 2 oz soda water. No garnish.

Notes

Vary the Verde / blanco base split depending on desired level of heat. The posted ratio seemed to be the most palatable to those who tried it.

The Sultan

1 oz Blended Scotch, Famous Grouse
1 oz Islay Scotch (Bunnahabhain 12)
3⁄4 oz Lemon juice
1⁄2 oz Honey syrup (Date honey, aka Silan)
1⁄2 oz Pomegranate juice (100%, NOT nectar)
1⁄4 t Orange flower water
Instructions

Combine all in a shaker and discipline the hell out of it. Double strain to a double rocks glass with a large ice cube.

Notes

1. Go easy on the peat
2. It's imperative to use both 100% dates and pomegranate. Anything else will be watery and poor in flavor
3. Be very careful with the orange flower water. It's a very dominant element and a shaky hand will kick the cocktail out of balance
