Build it, ice it, stir it, strain it in a coupe - add a cherry. Do you agree?
Build, ice, stir, strain, twist. Return[cocktail].
Higher math was always a stumbling block, so I was hesitant to try "Silvio's Algorithm." Until I looked at the ingredients, that is! I knew from the beginning that this drink was the Drinker's Drink. And the proof was in the pudding, as it were.
I used Bols Genever Amsterdam gin--barrel-aged as specified, Angel's Envey, a good, but not well known bourbon--this batch distilled in port wine barrels at 86.6 proof, a skinney Fernet Branca, Aperol, and Amaro Meletti. And lemon zest, to finish it off. This is an incredibly smooth drink. The Meletti is there, as is the Aperol. Both provide a slight but necessary bitterness. The Genever gin sits quietly in the background, giving room for the bourbon to speak up, but softly so. And the lemon zest is a necessary must, to round out the flavors.
There is a lot of alcohol in this drink, so plan accordingly. Two of these says get an alternate driver! But this drink is like a potato chip; it's hard to stop with one. So enjoy, but be careful. I rate "Silvio's Algorithim at a well-deserved 5.0.
Used St. George Dry Rye Reposado for fear that an Old Tom might be too sweet. The result felt a little too astringent. Would try Genever next time around.
Muddle the juniper berries. Shake everything. Strain into a Collins glass with ice. Garnish with lemongrass.
Created for the 2007 Vinos de Jerez Cocktail Competition.
Shake for 30 seconds (until shaker is frosty), strain into a rocks glass, top with club soda.
Can sub Angostura for the Dandelion & Burdock bitters.
Curated this. Rewrote instructions and notes to avoid copyright. Added date. Edited the bitters - maybe in 2014 those were hard to find, but they're pretty available today. Thanks, Zachary
Muddle cherry tomatoes in base of the shaker. Add other ingredients and fill up with ice. Roll it until chilled and fine strain into a Cobbler glass / Wine glass or Water Goblet (if any available for your desire). Fill up with crushed ice. Garnish with an Orange wedge, a cherry tomato cut into half, a Celery stick and a Rosemary (just flaming before served).
Ps: This drink should be accompanied with Iberico to create the Umami taste of the drink. Enjoy!
It tastes authentic with a mouth-feel of the Umami flavor of the drink. Try to order it for your girl friend next time at the bar!
Inspired by the beautiful Port of Valencia which are the key! La Tomatina is a festival that is held in the Valencian town of Buñol, a town located in the East of Spain and near by the Mediterranean; in which participants throw tomatoes and get involved in this tomato fight purely for entertainment purposes. Since 1945, it has been held on the last Wednesday of August, during the week of festivities of Buñol. Cheers,

Dry shake, shake, up, top with soda.
Soda volume not specified, but I'm assuming it doesn't need much given small volume of cocktail.
Dry shake, shake, collins (up), top with soda.
I've seen this listed in a couple different places with slight variations (e.g. no lime); likely derived from the Seapea Fizz, which is essentially the same thing with a lot less absinthe.
Dry shake, shake, strain into collins over ice. Top with soda. Drop bitters on foam, garnish with lemon twist and mint.
Curated this slightly. Removed the creator's name from the drink as per the link. Estimated the club soda volume. Thanks, Zachary
I think all of my drinks have been served 'up.' Build, ice, stir, strain, twist, connect. Try to notice the lemon oil swirling about the top!
Zupa, I like the unapologetic use of bold ingredients in the drinks you've posted. This one reminds me a bit of a more aggressive "The Man Comes Around", one of my favorites posted here at KC. Didn't have Norseman Fernet (looks to be a local product in Minnesota), so I've tried this with Fernet Branca, CH Fernet Dogma and Letherbee Fernet, all to good effect. Love your drink names too, which would be right at home as song titles for some prog math metal album.
Shake the ingredients with ice to chill, then strain into a chilled coupe.
Riff on the original whiskey Daisy cocktail.
A Daisy is classically a spirit, lemon juice, and a liquid sweetener (liqueur or syrup), served over ice in a stemmed glass.
Can also make this a fruit smash - blueberries worked well
