Curated this - this is a midcentury drink from the 1946 Stork Club Bar Book by Lucius Beebe. Revised the drink to match the cited link. Thanks,  Zachary

  • Very good. Nice way to change up a beer, especially good holiday drink. I used a Russian Imperial Stout, and I think it would be better with a more mild beer.

Darkness in Brooding

3⁄4 oz Batavia Arrack
3⁄4 oz Cynar 70
3⁄4 oz Zucca
3⁄4 oz Coffee liqueur, St. George
Instructions

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

Notes

Also works well with mezcal or a moderately peated scotch (say Talisker Storm or Bowmore, or a split base with some Laphroaig and another non-peated scotch). Part of my ongoing "4 parts, equal parts, stirred" series

1872

3⁄4 oz Scotch (Smoky blend or smoky single malt)
3⁄4 oz Barbados Rum (Or other non-funky moderately high pot still English-style rum)
1⁄2 oz Amaro, Cappelletti Sfumato Rabarbaro (Or Zucca)
1 twst Orange peel (Flamed as garnish)
Instructions

Stir with ice, strain into a cocktail coupe, and garnish with a flamed orange twist.

Notes

Inspired by how well rabarbaro like Zucca & Sfumato pair with Punt e Mes, I crafted a 1919 riff that I named after the Great Boston Fire. I selected Scotch for half the spirit after how well rabarbaros pair with Scotch in the Caustic Negroni.

History

A drink crafted at home instead of at my work bar.

  • Meh
  • I don't know if I like this. I think I agree that to balance it you probably have to take the fernet down as it's kind of overwhelming at the proposed spec.
  • Good but I will use less fernet next time

  • Made with cynar 70, which is a little more intense and may overbalance, need to try again with usual formulation or backing off of this, nice combination of flavors

Algiers Point

1 oz Rye
1⁄2 oz Herbal liqueur, Yellow Chartreuse

1 twst Lemon peel (Oil only as garnish)
Instructions

History

One night, a pair of cocktailians that I know from around town came into River Bar. For their second round, they asked for something herbal like a Green Point, or perhaps something inspired by John Gertsen (No. 9 Park/Drink/now ABV). So I thought, "Why not both?" Since John is a big fan of Sazeracs and its variations, why not merge a Cognac Sazerac with a Green Point? Gertsen at No. 9 Park was also excited about serving Green Points, so it all fit into place. For a name, I honed in on the "Point" part of the 2005 Milk & Honey neoclassic and dubbed this one after the section of New Orleans on the other side of the Mississippi River, namely Algiers Point.

flickerdart commented on 9/08/2023:

Somewhat mangled in my substitutions (elixir combier instead of chartreuse, genepy instead of absinthe) but well balanced and an excellent upgrade for a Manhattan fan looking for something more complex to sink their teeth into.


HallA commented on 9/23/2023:

Not dry enough for me, kind of a vieux carre --sazerac mix that is inferior to both. May try and make again with my preferred vieux carre raitos and using the chartreuse instead of benedictine...


Aviation__1952 commented on 2/16/2024:

A fantastic cocktail !! I'm a real pushover for an extensive component list, especially when I actually have all the components on the shelf. The opportunities to use "more of this" and "less of that" adds great fun in perfecting the cocktail to my own personal palate. Wonderful !!
