Julian Ross

2 oz Junmai Sake

2⁄3 oz Dry vermouth
2⁄3 oz Soda water
3 sli Ginger
Instructions

Place the ginger slices on the sides of the glass with a lot of ice, add the other ingredients and stir very gently.

Notes

As an alternative to ginger you can use 2cl of Ginger Beer (eliminating soda).

History

One of the cocktails dedicated to the national teams of the 2018 Russian World Cup. I chose Julian Ross, name of Jun Misugi in the Italian version of the manga "Kyaputen Tsubasa", to represent Japan.

The Whimsey

1 1⁄2 oz Gin, Tanqueray Malacca
1⁄2 oz Campari
1⁄2 oz Lime cordial, Rose's
2 ds Mint Bitters
3 wdg Lime
Instructions

Muddle the 3 lime wedges in a shaker. Then add all ingredients, then add lots of ice, then shake vigorously. Then pour everything into a large frozen glass.

Notes

The muddle'ing idea is fundamental to a Caipirinha and adds some extra lime tartness in concert & contrast with the Campari.

History

With so many choices resting on the bar, I chose these ingredients as possibilities for something whimsically delicious.

  • Used Wild Turkey 101 rye and Ilegal mezcal joven. The rye overpowered everything. Added 2 drops Boker's bitters to drop the heat. It helped. Also added large ice ball. As is, rated at 3.5.
  • Might make again though shots of straight whiskey would seem to have the same effect.

Steinbeck, yes! Lapsus. Thank you. And thanks also to the curator!
