Notes

The website calls this another take on the Last Word, but doesn't give it another name. Since everyone knows what a Last Word is, I don't want to call this that, but I'm not sure I should name it myself.

Isn't this recipe a Commodore #2? According to Martin Doudroffs index of cocktails there are several cocktails including Commodore in their name. Jamie Boudreau is cited as the creator of the recipe written here, but Doudroffs index refers to this book: Albert Stevens Crockett. Old Waldorf Bar Days. Aventine Press. 1931. p. 127.

  • Surprising and surprisingly great combination. Made with Anejo.
  • Subbed Yellow Chartreuse. Kinda felt like the shaking required to work over the raspberries also diluted the drink too much.
  • Try with 1 oz tequila, maybe reposado

I was looking for something to do with Stiggin's pineapple rum, and I'm very happy to have found this.

I also *just* happened to have some leftover demerara syrup from a previous cocktail session. 



I used st.george agricole, which gave this cocktail a funkier nose than probably intended, but it was a point of interest instead of a point against it. 

Overall, Stiggin's lends itself very well to this cocktail as it brightens the entire palette.

I'd thought a 1/2 oz of allspice was a bit excessive, but it worked well. Next time I'll try a little less allspice and see if the drink remains as tasty.

Susurrus

2 oz Calvados, Boulard (VSOP)
1⁄2 oz Lemon juice
1⁄2 oz Simple syrup
2 oz Hard cider (dry)
Instructions

Shake the first four ingredients with ice and strain into a chilled cocktail flute or coupe OR build in an ice-filled old fashioned glass and stir briefly to combine.

Top with hard cider. Garnish with a thin apple slice.

Notes

It's straightforward apple pie in a French 75 jacket. Dash of ginger or allspice dram would probably work nicely.

Negroni riff using the similar-but-different Leopold Brothers Aperitivo. Cinnamon-rich Fee Brothers bitters play well with the herbal notes in the Aperitivo.
