Fragola Rock

1 1⁄2 oz Aromatized wine, Cocchi Americano
1 oz Gin
3⁄4 oz Strawberry shrub
10 dr Salt Solution
1 oz Soda water (to top)
1 twst Grapefruit peel (as garnish)
1 Strawberry (as garnish)
Instructions

Stir all but soda, strain onto big rock in a DOF (or onto cracked ice in a wine glass), top with soda, briefly stir, express grapefruit twist and garnish with it and/or a strawberry.

Notes

For the shrub, the Serious Eats cold-process works well, in this case calling for 1c strawberries, 1c sugar, and 1c red wine vinegar or cider vinegar.

History

"Fragola" is Italian for strawberry.

  • Refreshing and tasty! Thank you for sharing. I didn't have grapefruit one time, so I floated maybe about 1/8 ounce of pamplemousse liquor on it and it was also tasty.
  • Citrus juice (lemon and grapefruit) comes through though it's not present. Light, accessible. — ★★★★

happyrobot commented on 3/20/2022:

Tasty. I also used this to try out my homemade allspice dram. I made the mistake of using a lighter rum and I think the rum choice made the cocktail feel like it was lacking something - it was "missing a middle-range".

  • Very interesting and unique. Batavia Arrack not too dominant. Pimm's is a little lost though. Might up to 2oz next time
  • Next time decrease the honey syrup — ★★★★

flickerdart commented on 7/23/2021:

Somewhat improvised with 1/2oz Plymouth Navy + 1/2oz red vermouth + 1/4oz shrubb standing in for the Pimm's, maple instead of honey, and lemon instead of orange. There's a black tea flavor coming through somehow. Very intriguing.

yarm commented on 7/24/2021:

This drink made Russell House Tavern the top account for Batavia Arrack sales and had a long run on the menu until around 2016 or 2017.

yarm commented on 2/22/2023:

This should be 3/4 oz lime juice and 1/2 oz Batavia Arrack.

Delicious vegetal note to a standard tiki profile. New flavor profile evokes another era.
