Cherry Bomb
Add ice to shaker, add ingredients. Stir and strain in a cocktail glass.
- Used Averna instead of Nonino and 1/4 oz Nocino instead of the bitters. Try Nonino next time and work on the Nocino amount (start lower and work up)
- Made w/ old fashion bitters. Surprisingly light on the cherry taste for a drink w/ this name. Christmas spice from the Montenegro is more salient (the subbed bitters didn't help). Garnished w/ Maraschino cherry. Seemed right.
- Good. A bit too sweet for my taste. Might be interesting to try with a less sweet amaro
- Poppies in October — Rye, Aperol, Apricot liqueur, Black tea liqueur, Orange bitters
- Babette's Supper Club — Bourbon, Grapefruit liqueur, Amaro, Bitters, Lemon peel
- The Revenant — Cognac, Virgin Islands Rum, Grapefruit liqueur, Ramazzotti, Orange peel
- China Fight Cocktail — Cognac, Bigallet China-China, Elderflower liqueur, Orange peel
- John the Revelator — Bourbon, Suze, Amaro Montenegro, Orange bitters
Used High West Campfire as the base whiskey to bring in a little smoke. Reduced Montenegro by 1/4 oz and added a Luxardo Maraschino cherry for garnish. Excellent!
I like this as an equal parts all 1oz/30cl.
Then 2 dashes of firewater bitters and 2 dashes cherry cacao bitters.
