Made this with the leftover almond milk from making orgeat. Good drink, bit on the light and tart side (I was expecting it to be heavier!.) There are certainly many worse things you can do with your leftover almond milk.

  • Sweet, tingly, and spicy. I used a grapefruit twist because that’s what I had on hand, and quite liked it.

1⁄8 oz Elderflower liqueur, St. Germain
1⁄8 t Fernet Branca
1⁄4 oz Lemon juice

Use fresh white grapefruit not pink. Shake and strain. Serve up with rainier cocktail cherry

Notes

Using the base spirit formula from the classic fog cutter but with white grapefruit replacing sour mix. The St Germain with a whisper of Fernet keeps the grapefruit bitterness forward.

  • For me, it's ok. I'm always looking for something to use my ZIRBENZ STONE PINE LIQUEUR...so I'm a little lenient on this. I think it's possible to adjust improve. Maybe chartreuse instead of elderflower?

Shawn C commented on 11/22/2022:

This is a great drink, well balanced. Pleasant pine/cedar and elderflower floral flavors balanced with the juniper/herbal character of the gin. Not sweet, not bitter, not too much alcohol heat, just right while having some intriguing flavor. The Peychaud's works to compliment the rest.

Weston

2 oz Bourbon
1⁄2 oz Coffee syrup
3 ds Peychaud's Bitters
Instructions

Stir, strain into old fashioned glass with a large cube or sphere. Garnish with a few spritzes of pipe tobacco essence from an atomizer.

Notes

Bourbon used has been listed in differing places as Weller 12 Year, Four Roses Private Single Barrel and Weller 107 Antique (seems to be the current choice).

For the coffee syrup, blend equal parts Dark Matter Unicorn Blood Espresso Blend (or similar) with demerara sugar.

For the pipe tobacco essence, macerate pipe tobacco (Queen Mary blend or other low nicotine blend) in high proof grain alcohol for a few days. I macerate mine in 151 Demerara rum for a bit more flavor.
