Peanut Colada

1 oz Armagnac
1 1⁄3 oz Peanut milk (see note)
1⁄3 oz Lime juice
1⁄2 sli Pineapple (0.5 to 1 inch)
1 pn Salt
Instructions

Blend all with 4 ice cubes. Pour in glass.

I 've strained the mix before serving.
And served it on rocks.

Notes

Peanut milk: blend 30 grams unsalted peanuts+ 3 1/5 oz water. Fine strain. Blend again with 5 tea spoons sugar.

History

The syndicat cocktail bar published a lot of recipes on instagram during quarantine. They tend to use a lot of waters/ milks, made by blending one ingredient with water. i thought it was a great idea for highballs and low abv drinks.

They only use french spirits and liqueurs.

1⁄2 oz White port, Fonseca (Siroco)

I haven't tried this, but if you don't have the Luxardo Sour Cherry Gin, you could probably try muddling a cherry with a lighter New Western style gin (the Luxardo is only 76 proof).

Earthly Regrets

3⁄4 oz Gin, Malfy (con Limone)
3⁄4 oz Suze
3⁄4 oz Crème de Pamplemousse, Giffard
3⁄4 oz Lemon juice
1 Grapefruit peel
Instructions

Shake all ingredients (including the grapefruit swath) with ice for 15 seconds, strain into a chilled coupe or Nick & Nora glass. No garnish.

Notes

This is definitely for those who like (really like) the earthy bitterness of Suze. If you want something a bit less intense, do 1 oz pamplemousse and .5 oz Suze.

If you don't have Malfy con Limone, use a low proof, citrusy gin such as Plymouth, Aviation, etc.
