Shake bourbon, syrup, and juice; strain into a flute, top with champagne, and garnish with a slapped basil leaf

This drink should be tart, so be careful not to make it too sweet. I would not omit the basil leaf, either.

The Ben Franklin

Instructions

Stir all ingredients except garnish over ice. Strain into a footed goblet with a single large cube of ice. Garnish with the lemon twist.

History

Domenico Lombardo, founder/executive chef of Mint Gastropu: “The better the mead, the better the drink. Bergamot-scented Earl Grey mead from nearby Colony Meadery plays nicely with Bourbon and honey syrup, like a more potent version of afternoon tea.”

  • Gives the Strega a stage to shine on.
  • Must try
  • Sophisticated spin on a martini. Maybe a touch too sweet.

I am not rating the posted cocktail, since I adjusted this from the 1937 Cafe Royale Cocktail Book ratios because I know the period cocktails often run a bit sweet with intense liqueur flavor. I used 2 oz Tanqueray, 1/2 Strega, 1/2 Noilly Prat Extra Dry, 2 dashes Regan's orange bitters, orange twist. This worked for my palate and I would rate it a 4, still substantial sweetness, but showcasing the herbal/botanical character of the Strega (which is similar to the Basque liqueur Izarra Jaune which I am fond of, a bit less sweet than Yellow Chartreuse, with more herbal character.) I will probably try this again with the Izarra to compare.

  • Good drink. Surprisingly spice-forward.
  • A very good use of two ingredients (actually three with the Bokers) that have a lot of strength and can overpower a drink easily in Strega and Fernet Branca. The creator has balanced these to great effect.
  • Really nice, the fernet is well behaved. Strong and sophisticated.
