Good enough to have been on the Mayahuel menu. Pretty sure that Phil Ward would approve.

Are you saying the same recipe (e.g. ingredient list) was on the Mayahuel menu at some point?

This is Not Berlin

1 oz Reposado Tequila
1 oz Mezcal
3⁄4 oz Cynar
1⁄4 oz Crème de Pamplemousse
1⁄4 oz Cinnamon syrup
1 ds Grapefruit bitters
1 twst Grapefruit peel (As garnish)
Instructions

Stir with ice, strain into a doube old fashioned glass with a large ice cube, and garnish with a grapefruit twist.

History

When writing up the Testadura with rum, Cynar, and cinnamon syrup on the blog, I became inspired to riff on the idea. I brought in grapefruit liqueur to complement the cinnamon from the Hawaiian War Chant, and mezcal, grapefruit liqueur, and Cynar worked so well in the Tres Amigos. For a name, I dubbed it This is Not Berlin after a 2019 coming-of-age movie set in Mexico City and centered around a nightclub.

Curated to update earliest known date for this cocktail as 2019 per https://mixedinla.com/2019/02/23/base-camp/ The recipe was published in Imbibe magazine in Nov. 2020.

I agree with the note about building this in the glass being an unnecessary pain unless one is trying to make a show of it. There are some bitters-dripped-on-sugar-cube (followed by muddling the sugar cube) Old Fashioned riffs and recipes that make sense for this, but I would rather pour this one over a cube, then garnish.

Louisiane and Maine

2 oz Rye
1⁄2 oz Sweet vermouth
1⁄4 oz Cherry Liqueur, Cherry Heering
1⁄4 oz Bénédictine
1 ds Bitters, Angostura
1 ds Peychaud's Bitters
1 ds Absinthe
1 Brandied cherry, Luxardo (optional)
Instructions

Stir with ice and strain into cocktail glass. Garnish with brandied cherry

Notes

Nicely balanced combination of vermouth, Benedictine and Cherry Heering backed by stiff rye and a gentle, inviting measure of absinthe and bitters. I used Rittenhouse and Cocchi di Torino.

While I like both of the cocktails it is based on, this is a level above either of them. I quickly decided I needed a second, and my wife had the same reaction.

History

A combination of "Remember the Maine" and "A La Louisiane"
