Beach & Panorama #4

2 oz Light rum, Bacardi (Gran reserva maestro de ron)
3⁄4 oz Lime juice
1⁄3 oz Rhubarb syrup (Homemade)
1⁄4 oz Ginger syrup (Belvoir cordial)
1 ds Orange cream citrate
1 ds Bitters (Bittermens Winter Melon)
5 lf Mint

Mix, shake, strain in coupe.

Notes

Rhubarb syrup: 4 stalks, peel rhubarb, chop, heat with 7 oz water, let boil, and rhubarb get to the point of purée. Strain, then strain again with coffee flter. Add same volume sugar. Bottle. Fridge.

Rhubarb tartness is going to vanish slowly after a week. Maybe some malic or citric acid could remedy to the problem.

JakGrabit commented on 12/30/2022:

Made with 1.5 ounces Slivovitz and 0.5 oz dambuie. Left out the grenadine. Used Hellfire Shrub and Pooter Smoke and Salt bitters instead of Peychauds - salt was a plus; smoke was not. Probably could have used lemon peel. Agree with other user: too sweet, but there's something there with teh Slivovitz and Dambuie. Tried a variation with Amaretto - no bueno.

Thank you very much JakGrabit. Maybe a Laphroaig float instead of grenadine? hmm...

Caribé Sour

1 1⁄2 oz Allspice Dram, Bitter Truth
1⁄4 oz Virgin Islands Rum, Cruzan Blackstrap
1⁄4 oz Bitters, Angostura
3⁄4 oz Hibiscus Liqueur, FruitLab
3⁄4 oz Lemon juice
3⁄4 oz Egg white
Instructions

Dry shake, wet shake, strain into a chilled coupe. No garnish.

Notes

Lime juice also works well if you want a slightly more tart, less sweet option.
St. Elizabeth and Hamilton are considerably sweeter than The Bitter Truth pimento dram, so if using those you'd probably need to use lime and up the citrus to 1 oz.

Dear Fernet

1 oz Overproof bourbon (Stagg jr 129 proof)
3⁄4 oz Suze
3⁄4 oz Sweet vermouth (Lustau)
3⁄4 oz Fernet Branca
1⁄4 oz Orgeat
Instructions

Long stir, about a minute, strain in coupe

Notes

Sweet yes ! But my palate loved the taste it had.
I pretty much like how fernet and suze interact.

If someone knows a way to keep the flavor and lower sweetness, please, let me know !

I uped bourbon slowly to 1. 1/3, but fernet and suze vanished....

Maybe dry sherry instead of vermouth ?

HallA commented on 2/19/2022:

It's sweet for sure, but with a bracing bitterness from the fernet so it doesn't taste cloying at all. Can definitely taste each part of the mix and agree with other comments that the fernet + suze is lovely, and I tend to think maybe more so with the Letherbee fernet I used that has a bit more saffron. Very nice.

  • I would agree that doing 1/2 of herbal liquor and 1/2 of benedictine and 1/4 of islay is spot on.
  • Enjoyable but quite sweet.

Coadster commented on 1/03/2025:

Good but a bit too sweet. I did 1/2 of the Benedictine and then did 1/2 of an herbal liquor and then 1/4 of Laphroig and it seems a bit better balanced.

yarm commented on 1/04/2025:

Yes. Most drinks like the 100 Year Old Cigar take that 2 oz spirit, 1/2 oz Cynar, 1/2 oz Benedictine structure. I found 1:1:1 enjoyable but on the richer end of my limits.

noksagt commented on 1/04/2025:

I tend to share the preference for more spirit-forward and less sweet drinks.

However, I read this particular cocktail more as an amaro- and peat- modified B&B. The bottled version of B&B is 60% Bénédictine, and so we remain roughly in the ballpark here. Using a younger higher proof spirit works here too.

Aperitivo #3

1 3⁄4 oz Sherry, Lustau Manzanilla
3⁄4 oz Bonal Gentiane Quina
3⁄4 oz Gin, G'Vine Floraison
1⁄3 oz Rhubarb syrup
1⁄3 oz Fernet Branca
1 ds Bitters, Angostura Orange
Instructions

Stir quickly just in order to chill with a lot of ice, strain, coupe.

Notes

Mid way between a sherry hanky panky and a bamboo, with additional notes.

Very light, herbal and floral.
Be carefull with dilution.

History

Just bought a bottle of manzanilla for the first time.
Wanted to try something but do not wanted to be influenced by recipes from the database.
This one comes.

Tried with 1oz gin and 0,5 rhubarb syrup:
More gin profile, fernet as present as before, apertif wines nearly disappeared.

I really think a higher proof cocktail will be good too.

Mixed up in Na… commented on 7/31/2025:

While making this drink, we thought that the recipe called for a lot of absinthe, and, indeed, when we sipped it, the absinthe overpowered the drink. We added another 1/3rd oz. of rum. That helped, but not enough. We had a bottle of ginger-honey syrup and added 1/2 oz of that. That gave the drink more balance, moving it away from the very strong absinthe. In the future, we will either follow that same scheme or simply lower the amount of absinth and leaven the drink with some syrup--either ginger or ginger-honey.
