  • Nicer with high abv rye, chocolate bitters are good, too
  • Partner with Reanimator coffee somehow
  • Sweet. Almost tempted to squirt a little of the lemon juice in there along with the zest.

MOJO1229 commented on 8/21/2016:

The Reanimator is an interesting drink, with only two ingredients, aside from the garnish, which is for taste, more than color or prettiness. There was no suggestion as to the rye to use, so I chose WhistlePig (10 years) because it is a soft and mellow rye, with a distinctive taste. Another reason I chose WhistlePig is that I didn't want a rye, such as Rittenhouse, that would overwhelm the Amaro Nonino and spoil the drink. For those who don't like WhistlePig rye or can't afford it, I believe a brand of rye in the 80-90 proof range, such as Wild Turkey rye or Sazerac, will work well. The Reanimator is a superb evening drink, which will be quickly appreciated by rye drink lovers.

  • Penicillin variant
  • Made with Ardbeg 10 instead of Laphroig. An unconventional but rewarding direction to take Nonino.
  • Nonino is a wonderfull amaro, using it as a base in this well balanced cocktail is brillant! — ★★★★
  • Laphroaig is a newly acquired taste for me, and this is my favorite cocktail featuring it so far.
  • Well balanced; the other ingredients pull out some of the interesting minor notes from the Nonino.

1⁄3 oz Mango juice
1⁄2 oz Lime juice
1⁄4 oz Passion fruit syrup, Monin
1 ds Bitters, Angostura
8 dr Hellfire Habanero Shrub, Bittermens
1 sli Yellow bell pepper
Instructions

Muddle yellow bell pepper with passion fruit syrup. Add other ingredients. Shake. Double strain. Serve in a coupe. Decorate with slice of bell pepper under an umbrella to protect it from the sun. ;-)

Notes

I used a premix of approx 2:1 orange:mango juice.
If you want stronger mango flavour, be my guest and change proportions.

History

The "winner" of the vegetable cocktails presentation I made in the bar. Not everybody liked the radish or fennel cocktails but this one was a hit.

  • Worth trying with rye. Gin is wasted on this one.
  • I like this as a Hanky Panky riff.
  • Nice Hanky Panky variant, and I think,with the richness of cacao, an improvement. OK to sub dark creme de cacao (all I had) since the sweet vermouth and fenet also add color. — ★★★★
  • honey, subtle bitterness, incredibly smooth

Tried this with rye subbed for the gin (because when I taste a gin drink I like, my first thought usually is "I bet this would be better with whiskey"). Also very good.

  • Works with Rye, also.
  • A touch sweet for me, but I do like the cherry/whiskey combo.
  • Try
  • Made with EW White. Sweet as mentioned, which makes me think rye might improve.
