  • Decadent and rich. Drink by a fire. IMHO, much better than most 4★ drinks on this site. (Made with Skip Rock's Nocino and normal chocolate bitters.)
  • Try again with nocino.

The original recipe calls for walnut liqueur, specifically Toschi. I used Nocello in this as specified in this recipe, which is a walnut and hazelnut liqueur - the hazelnut was very dominant and did not make for a good drink. Should be changed from Nocello to Nocino to reflect a true walnut liqueur.

Curated this to conform to the cited article: Bulleit rye, Toschi walnut liqueur, MM Chocolate-chili bitters. Added date, simplified instructions. Thanks,  Zach

Curated to fix broken reference link. Though LA Weekly calls for shaking, it may make more sense to stir this as Cocktail Virgin suggests.

Nice, would be cautious with suze or another gentiane amaro as I think they would blow the apricot away.

  • I used Grand Marnier as I only have Dry Curacao and was worried it would be too dry with that. Fairly thin tasting.

Light curation: conformed ingredients to KC database names and edited instructions to avoid copyright infringement. Thanks!

Thanks Craig! Eden makes three types of Aromatized Ice Cider - Orleans Herbal, Orleans Bitter, and Orleans Wood. It looks like these types are in the database as brand names. The product in this recipe is the Orleans Herbal.

The linked source says Orleans. If you made it with Orleans Herbal and like it that way, I'd suggest that your recipe should be listed as an "altered" recipe rather than as an "authentic" recipe (unless you know for sure that it is Serious Eats that has it wrong). (A minor point to be sure.)

I'm unfamiliar with this ingredient but it looks intriguing!
