  • LCL like this one a lot and asked about it. Made with Wild Turkey 101 since we had no Rye at the time. Try again with Rye. — ★★★★★
  • oddly tastes a bit like ice tea
  • Added an extra ounce of rye. Also good with soda water.

  • Only Demerara I had was Lemon Hart 151. So, my version was pretty boozy! But good. Agree with other comments on lemon peel.
  • I think this benefits from dropping lemon peel into drink.
  • Interesting but maybe goes in one too many directions. Dark.

I'd agree that dropping the lemon peel adds to the drink. Tasty.

Green Holland

1 1⁄2 oz Mezcal, Del Maguey
1 1⁄2 oz Green Crème de Menthe
3⁄4 oz Lemon juice
1 oz Heavy cream
1 Egg yolk
Instructions

Shake all ingredients vigorously with ice, strain into a frozen coupe glass. Garnish with a cherry.

History

THE NAME: "green" is for the creme de menthe. My pal Mike G. said that the lemon juice + egg yolk reminds him of Hollandaise sauce, so that's where "holland" comes from.

High Water

1 1⁄2 oz Blended Scotch
1⁄2 oz Islay Scotch
1 oz Cynar
1⁄2 oz Tawny port
1 ds Bitters, Bittercube Bolivar
Instructions

Stir, strain, up. Coupe, chilled.

Notes

The Bolivar bitters present cassia, chamomile, and dried fruits. Orange bitters might work as a substitute. Avoid Angostura and the like.

History

Had an open bottle of tawny. Seemed like it would be fun to pair with Cynar. Whereas sweet vermouth comes across as bitter, sweet, and spiced, the tawny port was more acidic and 'livelier'.
