Elske Sour #2

2 oz Gin, City of London
3⁄4 oz Sake, Nigori
3⁄4 oz Simple syrup (Umeboshi, see note)
3⁄4 oz Lemon juice
2 ds Bitters, Angostura
1 pn Yeast (Toasted bakers yeast)
Instructions

Build in a shaker, add pinch of toasted yeast, shake well and double strain.

Notes

To make the Umeboshi syrup, Blend 6 umeboshi into simple syrup then fine strain.

History

Similar to a plum/ginger sour but I love the added umami and saltiness of the umeboshi and yeast.

  • Love it. It's almost yogurty.
  • Had this at Elske and *loved* it. Made it at home and it was less good but still excellent. Put 3 umeboshi into 4oz of simple. Would do more ume next time. Ume garnish is good.

mako commented on 12/11/2019:

I'm super excited about replicating this but I think I'm missing a volume for syrup in the umeboshi syrup. I'm assuming that don't want six umeboshi into ¾oz of syrup but maybe I'm being unimaginative.

Banana Farmer

1 oz Navy strength rum, Smith & Cross
1 oz Light rum, Plantation 3 Star
1 oz Crème de Banane, Giffard (giffard ideally)
3⁄4 oz Lime juice
3⁄4 oz Pineapple juice
1⁄2 oz Falernum, Velvet Falernum
1 ds Bitters, Angostura
Instructions

Combine everything with ice and shake. Strain into an appropriate tiki mug or pearl diver glass filled with crushed ice. Probably needs a garnish, but I haven't found something yet. Maybe a slice of frozen banana?

  • Adapt to use CC EDV Douglas Fir instead of bitters/infused simple? Or Zirbenz SPL for sweetness?
Similar cocktails

I haven't toyed with CC EDV Douglas Fir....yet.  The bitters and simple are just awesome.  I highly recommend them both if you haven't tried them.  No sweetness is needed.  It's been described by many as a "dessert cocktail" or "grapefruit creamsicle".  Extremely popular and sought after.

Love & Chocolate

1 1⁄4 oz Gin, Junipero
3⁄4 oz Luxardo Bitter Bianco
1⁄4 oz Crème de Cacao, Giffard (Blanc)
1 oz Bianco Vermouth, Dolin
3 ds Bitters, Scrappy's Lavender
Instructions

Stir, strain into old fashioned glass with a large cube or sphere. Garnish with a few spritzes of crème de violette from an atomizer.

History

White Negroni riff inspired by my girlfriend's chocolate lavender truffle.

  • This is pretty good. We added some cocoa shells for garnish. It's a little sweet so we let a jalapeno slice hang out in it for a few minutes to balance it a bit. Very nice. — ★★★★

Negroni in Paradise

1 1⁄2 oz Gin, Beefeater (pineapple infused)
3⁄4 oz Campari
1⁄4 oz Amargo-Vallet
3⁄4 oz Aromatized wine, Cocchi Vermouth di Torino
1⁄4 oz Coconut liqueur, Clément Mahina Coco
Instructions

Stir, strain into an old fashioned glass with a large cube or sphere. Garnish with either a large orange swatch, pineapple fronds or a dehydrated pineapple ring.

Notes

For the pineapple infused gin, combine a roughly chopped ripe pineapple with a 750ml bottle of Beefeater either for (a) 24-48 hours in a non-reactive container, or (b) 2 hours at 135 degrees via sous vide. Also works well with Plantation Stiggin's Fancy Pineapple Rum.
