Shake vigorously with ice, pour into a coupe glass, and garnish with a lime twist and freshly grated nutmeg.
Used homemade orgeat, but the quick-and-easy kind that starts with almond milk.

Shake, strain, coupe, garnish.
Very well balanced. Delicious.
Made with basic Armagnac and Dillon. 4 stars.
Combine all liquids, stir with ice, strain into coupe glass, express oils from orange peel over the drink, garnish with the orange peel.
Use fresh white grapefruit not pink. Shake and strain. Serve up with rainier cocktail cherry
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.
Shake all but parfait amore w/ ice until well chilled; pour into a chilled coupe, garnish with 4 dashes of parfait amore & an orange peel
*combine 1tsp dhansak masala w/ 8oz of h2o & 8oz superfine sugar. bring to 135° for 15 minutes and let cool. filter and refrigerate.
Created for this season's "art of the mix" competition. Presenting my thanks (and love) to Freddie, Queen, & Bohemian Rhapsody; a combination of heady, London gin, Cointreau-anchored citrus, an ode to Mr. Mercury's Zanzibar birth and a colorful yet intentional finish
Stir the first three ingredients, strain into a cocktail glass, layer Peychaud's on top, garnish with flamed lemon peel.
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.
Shake with ice, strain in a coupe glass, garnish with a float of half a passion fruit (grenadia in Haïtian)
Stir, strain into old fashioned glass with a large cube or sphere. Garnish with a few spritzes of pipe tobacco essence from an atomizer.
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.
Stir, strain into old fashioned glass with a large cube or sphere. Garnish with an orange swath and a few spritzes of allspice liqueur from an atomizer.
Originally made with Black Maple Hill bourbon (likely the NAS 95 proof orange label, not the age stated black or green label product). I typically use Elijah Craig Small Batch (now sadly also NAS).
This is one of the finest cocktails I’ve ever tasted. One of the best uses of Nux Alpina ever! Thanks!
Add ingredients to chilled stirring vessel, stir for 40-50 revolutions, strain into old fashioned glass with a large cube or sphere, garnish with orange swath.
This drink is a masterpiece. On Punch it is garnished with an orange peel, was that an update or is this recipe incorrect? Regardless, I'll try it with a grapefruit peel next time.
Curated this - added link to the Punch article and changed grapefruit swath to orange swath (cut into a carrot for extra points) - any idea where the very specific instructions come from? Punch is not so picky. And bravo to anyone who has the carrot eau de vie! Thanks, Zachary
I believe I got the recipe from the licensed_to_distill Instagram account, which posted it before the Punch article. Not sure which garnish is correct; when I made it I used a grapefruit swath and had the carrot eau-de-vie on hand, and it was quite good.
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.
