NY Flyer

2 oz Rye
3⁄4 oz Lemon juice
1⁄2 oz Crème Yvette
1⁄2 oz Maraschino Liqueur, Luxardo
Instructions

Shake, strain.

Notes

I thought the original was a bit sour so I eased up on the lemon. Good use for Crème Yvette, which I actually like. Poo poo to the haters...

History

An Aviation for gin haters like me using rye and Crème Yvette. Not sure of the creator or if this is a vintage cocktail or a just a riff on the Aviation - check the source.

Also make a good winter warmer. I usually add a thin slice of lemon and dilute with boiling water

Midnight Cicada

1 1⁄2 oz Cynar
1 oz Nocino
1 oz Virgin Islands Rum, Cruzan Blackstrap (Any spiced dark or blackstrap rum is fine)
1⁄4 oz Lemon juice
1 ds Orange flower water (garnish)
1 twst Lemon peel (express and garnish)
1 twst Orange peel (express and garnish)
Instructions

Stir liquor and lemon with ice, strain, pour over rocks, garnish.

Notes

Nice balance of sweet and bitter in the original - I added a teensy bit of sour, floral nose and deeper spicy undertone with the rum. Try it with rum and the original cachaca for a sweeter drink.

History

This is a riff on the house Amaro Cocktail at La Sirena Clandestina as found on Imbibe magazine website. Their version is good, but mine is less sweet and has a richer flavor.

  • Consider making as a highball with club, tonic, or chinotto.
  • What an unusual drink! The lemon in the stirred drink seems strong, but it completely works! 4.5★

This is pretty good but, for some reason, it comes across like very fancy amaretto sour to me.

  • Used regular Elijah Craig bourbon and added a barspoon of Kahlúa Especial for the coffee note.
  • Fun coffee cocktail. Used up my last drops of homemade Suze on this one.

Fernet "Milkshake"

1 1⁄2 oz Fernet Branca
3⁄4 oz Coffee liqueur, St. George (NOLA)
1⁄2 oz Crème de Cacao, Tempus Fugit
1⁄4 oz Bitters, Scrappy's Chocolate
3⁄4 oz Egg white
1 oz Cream
Instructions

Whip shake all ingredients except cream with two cubes for approximately 30 seconds. Add cream, ice and shake again for approximately 15 seconds. Strain into either a coupe (the wash line will be right up to the lip on a 6 oz coupe) or a short Collins (< 10 oz) glass. I usually don't garnish, but you could do either some bittersweet chocolate gratings or a small pinch of espresso powder.

Notes

You could also go the flip route with this (replace the egg white and 1 oz cream with a whole egg and less cream). If you want something a bit sweeter, omit or reduce the chocolate bitters. Or swap out the Fernet Branca with Menta for a Grasshopper riff.

History

I've been making Fernet milkshakes for a few years using Fernet, espresso gelato, Guinness and chocolate syrup, and wanted to come up with a similar version that doesn't require ice cream, beer or a blender.
