  • Def make again. Maybe because I didn’t have the right rum, came out on the tart side even with 1 oz cinn syrup. Will try again with less lime.

Will all that fit in an ice-filled rocks glass?

noksagt commented on 4/16/2018:

In the source, it fit in a DOF, though there's not a ton of crushed ice (a gated pour would need to catch most ice). When i made it, it was barely too large for my DOF.

The volume of tiki drinks varies widely. This is large, but not the largest. A larger tiki mug would be a great vessel for this, but I noted and tried what was published.

  • Enjoyable but something of an acquired taste. Not for everyone. Pleasantly easy to make, and one big cube was not out of place. (N.B.: We stirred with crushed ice, not cubed.) — ★★★★
  • Mezcal was slightly overpowering - reduce to 1 oz
  • Smoky & yummy
  • Very smoky; I used mole bitters which was probably a little much.
  • Complex, slightly smokey, subtle chocolate. A wonderful, rich, complex cocktail. Could easily take a big cube. — ★★★★

This is complex and I think actually quite approachable. Pretty impressively balanced for the players but I suspect regular cynar would suffer. Very nice.

Travis Bickel commented on 10/03/2022:

Used high proof Bourbon instead of blended scotch and added Peychaud's bitters with Mole bitters for chocolate and anise undertones. Poured into rock's glass with one large cube and it worked real well.

  • Next time I'd dial back the lime to 0.5 oz, but very good nonetheless. Upped the Chartreuse by 0.25 to re-balance, and that worked too!

Made with Genepi instead of Chartreuse. Haters will say they're totally different but it worked very well.

Extraction

2 oz Vodka (strawberry infused, see note)
1⁄2 oz Aromatized wine, Lillet Blanc
1⁄4 oz Orange liqueur, Grand Marnier
1 Strawberry (as garnish)
Instructions

Stir, up, garnish with strawberry on rim of martini glass

Notes

We rapid-infused the vodka with fresh strawberries, but mostly for fun; I'm not sure muddling and straining wouldn't have been at least as effective.

  • Used Beefeaters Gin and Bullet Rye — ★★★★★
  • One of my favorites. I use whatever Rye I have on hand in lieu of anything particularly Canadian. It’s a very well balanced drink and its a great way to introduce someone to Suze. — ★★★★
  • Made with Beefeater, American rye, and Amer Sauvage. As expected, the gentian was strident at first but became more likable. Aperol pulls peanut butter out of the whiskey. Whiskey + gin worked better than I expected.

flickerdart commented on 7/31/2020:

Made with Forty Creek Barrel Select whisky, London Hill dry gin, and Contratto Bitter instead of the Aperol because that's all I had (it's too assertive, if you sub it then reduce the proportion). The first sip is definitely a powerful bitter punch but the sweetness of the Forty Creek shines through. I would never have believed that the drink contains no sweet liquors or vermouths!
