  • Pretty good boozy tipple. The tequila is an inspired inclusion. Its earthiness, and the heavy bitters, help keep the Heering from taking over.

bit sweet with cherry taking over for me,
but subtle orange shines through

Pretty good cocktail man.  Thanks.  I used Debonett Rouge in place of the Besk for availability purposes and it's pretty damn good.  Very dry but the Lemoncello adds a tiy bit of sweetness and citrus.  Very good.

  • Negroni variant
  • As mentioned by others, a very tasty negroni variant. Used a charred jalapeno with good success.
  • This ‘kitchen sink’ variant of a Negroni is wonderful to drink, but laborious to build. My wife coined the drink, “a Negroni with a tutu”, which may be more profound than I can currently fathom. — ★★★★★
  • Very good. Nicely bitter; more buoyant than a Manhattan, but more body than a Negroni. Didn't have a habanero, so used a jalapeño instead. The char worked well.
  • Very nice - has Manhattan-like flavor with a different herbal depth from the gin. 4.5

This is a wonderful, full- flavored drink--even without the charred habanero. For the orange bitters, I used Fee Bros.' gin barrel-aged orange bitters. I rated the "Baboso" at 4.5. With the charred habanero, it might have been a 5.0! 

Given all of the ingredients, perhaps a better name for this libation is "Mulligan stew."

Mixin In Ansley commented on 7/01/2023:

Added orange and caramel notes to the Negroni and a sweeter finish

  • Potentially interesting to combine Salers with Tequila
  • Lovely amber color. Citrus nose but a bit of cherry or pickled plum on sip, and strong (but not heavy) bittersweet chocolate finish. — ★★★★★

  • Sumac vodka is an interesting ingredient. Extremely astringent. The drink is well balanced and interesting.
  • I'd consider upping the vodka to 1 1/2 oz, but I like a stiff drink.
