Banana Bread Flip

1 1⁄2 oz Crème de Banane, Giffard
1⁄2 oz Demerara Rum, El Dorado 8
1⁄4 oz Virgin Islands Rum, Cruzan Blackstrap
1⁄4 oz Allspice Dram, Bitter Truth
1 Whole egg
Instructions

Dry shake all ingredients, shake with ice for 15 seconds, strain into a chilled cocktail coupe. Garnish with grated nutmeg.

History

Part of a series I'm working on with liqueurs as a cocktail base. Similar to my posted Bananas Foster Flip recipe, but with a stronger banana flavor and added spice notes from the pimento dram. After whipping it up off the cuff, a friend said it tasted like liquid banana bread, hence the name.

Most definitely tastes like banana bread. Used a stronger DIY Banana Liqueur to kick it up. Good decision!

Low Winter Sun

3⁄4 oz Rye, Rittenhouse 100
3⁄4 oz Amaro Abano
3⁄4 oz Bonal Gentiane Quina
3⁄4 oz Palo Cortado Sherry, Lustau ("Peninsula")
1 Orange peel
Instructions

Stir, strain into old fashioned glass with a large cube or sphere or a Nick & Nora glass. Garnish with an expressed orange swath.

Notes

The Lustau Palo Cortado "Peninsula" Sherry combines the nutty dryness of an amontillado with the rich fig & raisin notes of an oloroso. Substitute with a split of those two sherries if unavailable.

Brilliant. Exactly what I was looking for in an Aperol sour. The Galliano and Yellow Chartreuse add some welcome complexity. I craze a bit more body, but this went down so easily. Used 1:1 demerara instead of the ginger-honey, but I'd love to try the ginger-honey. Added to my home menu

bkemp1984 commented on 4/03/2021:

Made with Golden Moon creme de violette and an ok Total Wine brand creme de cassis, pretty good. I could never imagine 3/4 of Rothman and Winter violette in any drink and I use the Golden Moon whenever it's more than 1/4 in a recipe. If using R&W I'd maybe just do 1/2 oz. It would still have enough sugar to balance the lime, or could add a bit of syrup too.

Meditation purpose

1 1⁄3 oz Bourbon, Maker's Mark
3⁄4 oz Dry vermouth, Noilly Prat
1⁄3 oz Apricot liqueur (Merlet lune d'abricot)
1⁄3 oz Amaro Nonino
1⁄4 oz Elisir Novasalus
Instructions

Stir, strain in coupe, express lemon Peel and drop in.
Serve.

Notes

I asked for a boulevardier or Manhattan kind.
But i insisted on something very different and experimental.

It was complex and subtle at the same time.
Not strong alcool forward.

Bourbon showed only at the end.
At the same time, the drink was dry, a bit bitter, with crisp and not sweet.
Just the subtle sweetness needed.

I thought he splitted the base with gin.

Delicious.

  • Didn't have Elisir Novasalus, so subbed Braulio. Quite good! Dry with slight sweetness & tartness from the apricot liqueur (I used Stone Barn Biggs Junction Apricot, which is less sweet than average, so upped it to 0.5oz /15ml). — ★★★★

Shawn C commented on 1/14/2023:

Well-crafted, almost dry. The dry bitter pine sap of the Elisir Novsalus pairs well with the sweet apricot (I used Rothman & Winter). I wasn't sure if the Noilly Extra-dry here in the U.S. would work, but it did.

flickerdart commented on 3/03/2023:

Had to do some substituting (pear liqueur and amaro montenegro) but the whisky, vermouth, and novasalus carry the day. A nice variation on a dry manhattan that gets elevated to a premium flavor by the amari.

Probably one of the most interesting drinks I've come across here on Kindred, in a good way.

I only wish I had the appreciative company here to share it with, and discuss...

I'm intrigued enough to try. Question about the pear liqueur you list vs pear brandy spec on the Punch site. That'd certainly affect the sweetness, no? What did you use?

Malmsey Flip

2 oz Madeira, Blandy's Malmsey 5 Year
1⁄2 oz Maple syrup
1⁄2 oz Bitters, Angostura
1 Whole egg
Instructions

Shake once without and once with ice, strain into a large coupe glass, and garnish with freshly grated nutmeg.

Notes

Other Madeira styles will work as long as the sweetness level is adjusted for (perhaps a bsp of simple syrup for each level down). Malmsey > Bual > Verdelho > Sercial. I think Rainwater is somewhere in the middle.

History

In needing more Flip ideas for the Winter, I was inspired by Jacob Grier's PX Flip (PX sherry, Angostura, egg). Since Malmsey Madeira is not as sweet as Pedro Ximenez sherry, I took a page from Misty Kalkofen's Fort Washington Flip and sweetened things with maple syrup. While my drink was an off menu item, it did make a menu in late 2017 at the Livestock Tavern in Honolulu.
