The only online reference to this drink I found (which I added to the reference section) mentions an absinthe rinse. 


nemovere commented on 11/01/2022:

I expected more, but seemingly only got an odd Vodka Martini. Added a few drops of Absinthe to simulate that absinthe rinse mentioned in the reference and that really helped the drink a lot. Next time I'll also try increasing Maraschino Liq. to the full 1/4oz called for there.


Blue Wisteria

1 1⁄2 oz Gin, Citadelle
3⁄4 oz Blueberry syrup
3⁄4 oz Lemon juice
1 ds Chinese 5 spice bitters, Barkeep
1 ds Fennel bitters
Instructions

Shake all ingredients with ice for 15 seconds, strain into a chilled coupe. Garnish with a single star anise pod.

Notes

For the blueberry syrup, juice blueberries (I use an Omega Vert) and add equal parts sugar and a half part of water. Alternately puree equal parts blueberries and sugar with half part of water in a blender, and then strain. I wouldn't suggest doing a high heat stove top syrup.

Aperitivo #6

2 oz Chinato
3⁄4 oz Dry vermouth
1⁄2 oz Mirto
4 ds Orange cream citrate
Instructions

In coupe, add a big ice cube (4 to 8 the size of a normal ice cube) or a round ice cube, pour ingredients. Stir a bit. Serve

Notes

Adding the ingredients turned Chinato into a fine and bittered sweet vermouth.
Orange cream citrate makes the difference.

History

Thinking about making a batch to use as vermouth in Manhattans or others
