Thoughts & Pears

1 1⁄2 oz Pear eau de vie
1⁄2 oz Rhum Agricole, Trois Rivieres
3⁄4 oz Lime juice
1⁄2 oz Orgeat (1:1)
1⁄4 oz White Crème de Menthe, Giffard
1 ds Bitters (tiki)
1 sli Pear (dehydrated)
Instructions

Shake all ingredients with ice and strain into a chilled V-martini glass. Spear the pear slice with a cocktail pick, mist it with mezcal (if available), then garnish.

Notes

While I like an unaged agricole in this, it's a real crowd pleaser when made with a more neutral rum like Flor de Cana 4. Basically any 'white' rum will work however.

The bitters I used originally were homemade spiced pineapple ones, with a strong cinnamon and anise note behind the pineapple. Ideally don't use anything that will change the colour of the drink too dramatically.

Werewolves of London

1 1⁄2 oz Gin, Tanqueray 10
3⁄4 oz Manzanilla sherry
1 oz Pineapple juice
1 oz Coconut cream
1⁄2 oz Lime juice
1 ds Orange bitters, Regans' orange bitters
2 Maraschino cherry, Luxardo (as garnish)
1 lf Pineapple (as garnish)
Instructions

Whip shake ingredients with crushed ice, then dump into a highball glass. Top with fresh crushed ice and garnish. Serve with a straw.

History

A cross between a Piña Colada and Chris Jepson's London Calling, named for the Warren Zevon song in which the narrator states he saw 'a werewolf drinking a Piña Colada at Trader Vic's, and his hair was perfect'.

I actually named this drink the singular 'Werewolf of London' but a cocktail by this name already exists in Kindred's Database. Gotta say, while I think mine fits the name better, the other is a tasty libation.

Open, Sesame!

1 1⁄2 oz Aquavit, Linie
1 oz Carrot juice
3⁄4 oz Lemon juice
1⁄2 oz Orgeat (1:1)
1 t Tahini
1 ds Absinthe
1 oz Egg white (one medium)
1 dr Rose water
Instructions

Dry shake all but rose water, then shake with ice and strain into a chilled coupe glass. Garnish with Angostura bitters art, sesame seeds, and the rose water.

Notes

Any quality tahini should work but Baracke is runny and thus easier to measure and incorporate.

History

After discovering my love of tahini I wanted to incorporate it into a cocktail. I used caraway and rose water for their presence in Middle Eastern cooking and carrot juice and orgeat for savoury goodness. The egg white acts as a binding agent to prevent the tahini from separating.

Dead Men Float

2 oz Jamaican rum, Appleton Estate V/X
1⁄2 oz Pineapple juice
1⁄2 oz Lemon juice
1⁄2 oz Cinnamon syrup (1:1)
1 ds Bitters, Angostura
2 t Fernet Branca
1 t Coffee liqueur, Mr. Black
2 lf Pineapple
Instructions

Whip shake all but the Fernet and coffee liqueur with a few pieces of ice, then strain into a highball glass filled with crushed ice. Float the Fernet and coffee liqueur on top and garnish with the pineapple fronds.

History

Came up with the name first, then decided it was a great opportunity to deploy my favourite shot, 50:50 Fernet:Mr Black (or what I call a Mr Branca™). Skewing the float towards Fernet works better in terms of aromatics and cutting through the drink towards the end.
