illusionistlynx commented on 3/18/2025:

I love this combination of flavors, especially with the Hendrick's Gin. Reduce the ginger beer to 5 oz (one can of Fever Tree) and that improves the balance so that the absinthe and the Suze come through more prominently. Potentially still too sweet even with that adjustment, but very tasty.

Edit: Made this with Bundaberg over Fever Tree and it was substantially better. The Fever Tree is more acidic and has more ginger bite which detracts from the other flavors.

Peppery

1 1⁄2 oz Jamaican rum, Smith & Cross
1⁄2 oz Calvados
1⁄3 oz Lime juice
1⁄2 oz PInk grapefruit juice
3⁄4 oz Simple syrup, Spiced
1⁄2 oz Pink Peppercorn
3⁄4 oz Egg white
Instructions

Muddle Pink pepper berries, shake with ice, strain, in coupe.
Garnish with a dried grapefuit slice floating on foam with a twist of Pink pepper on top.

Notes

The syrup is flavored with Cinamon, clove and vanilla. Muddled cinamon and cloves can be subbed for spiced syrup....

Dead link -- so here's one from my blog: https://cocktailvirgin.blogspot.com/2009/02/tommy-noble.html

According to Dave, he is not a fan of 1910-30s boxing, but it was named after from the "Drinking out of cups" video with the talking lizard. He and and another bartender used to banter back and forth with lines from that video. Puts the year a little after 2000 since the video came out 2006 and I had it in early 2009.

noksagt commented on 8/14/2021:

Fred, you may be right. But other sources peg it earlier, e.g. this says 2003:

https://www.thefoodlens.com/boston/sides/cocktail-recipe/cocktail-of-th…

Don’t know if it could have been inspired by the audio of that video?
“Audio track was originally recorded in 2003 as a class project by the American musician Dan Deacon, just talking about random things on TV channels in character of a stereotypical Long Islander. It was also featured on his 2003 release Meetle Mice. ”

  • Liked the overall complex dark flavor profile, but too sweet. Balanced well with juice of half a lime.
  • Very bitter. Very sweet. More Amaro than cocktail. Of course, that's hardly a problem.
  • I liked the original, but just tried subbing cachaca with Barbancourt white rum and added a generous splash of homemade ginger beer on top. Kind of like a Dark and Stormy, but with much more depth and complexity.
  • "Choking Nut" perhaps?

Yes. Really, really needs a better name. Maybe the bartender's canine companion is named "Dog" and his son, "Malechild".
