Less Cacao, more Campari and its fine. Port and Antica kind of lost though.

Should be noted that the original recipe calls for George T. Stagg Bourbon, and that the creator of the drink is Brian Miller.

1⁄2 oz Oloroso sherry
1⁄2 oz Ginger syrup
1⁄4 oz Demerara syrup (1:1)
1⁄2 oz Lime juice
2 ds Pimento bitters
1 oz Ginger beer (or ginger-molasses switchel)
Instructions

Shake, strain over one big rock, topping with ginger beer, and garnish with freshly grated nutmeg dusted on a lime wheel.

Notes

House black rum blend is two parts Barbancourt 8 (or another light-bodied well-aged rum) to one part each Smith & Cross and Cruzan blackstrap.

Aura

1 oz Gin, The Botanist
1⁄2 oz Tawny port
1⁄4 oz Dry vermouth, Dolin
1⁄4 oz Absinthe, Kübler
1⁄2 oz Lemon juice
1 Egg white
3 Raspberry
2 bsp Fine sugar (vanilla)
2 dr Bitters, Angostura
Instructions

Muddle the raspberries in the shaker with the sugar. Shake all ingredients except bitters without ice. Give it another shake with ice. Strain into a coupé. Garnish with a couple drops of bitters.

I think sweetness could be tweaked to taste. Maybe slightly more or less sugar.

Notes

Vanilla sugar: I split half a vanilla bean and put it in to 8 ounces of superfine sugar and let it sit for a week or so (honestly, I don't take the vanilla out).

  • This was surprisingly delicious. It's light - the botanicals and spiciness come out of the gin and cocchi americano nicely. I aded some fresh rosemary to finish it off to kick up the aromatics a little.
