  • Made with Punt e Mes. Intense flavors meld pretty well. An assertive drink.

Curated this slightly - Changed Hugh to Hugo Ensslin. Changed instructions to conform with the cited text - it was shaken originally.  Thanks,  Zachary

noksagt commented on 8/20/2016:

This is the same as Kill or Cure that has been on the site since 2013, but this version's attribution information is better.

It appears in Beta (née Rogue) Cocktails, where Punt e Mes is recommended.

Zachary Pearson commented on 8/21/2016:

On a user tip, I merged the "Kill or Cure" into the Bonsoni - typically, I'd prefer the oldest instance of a drink to get credit. Thanks,  Zachary

1 oz Lime juice
1⁄2 oz Pineapple juice
2 t Orgeat, B.G. Reynolds

Very aromatic. This cocktail has three parts. The spirituous beginning, the explosion of flavour and spice in the middle, and the subtly bitter and anise-like finish.

  • Used Sacrificio mezcal and Herbsaint. In the neighborhood of a Lawn Dart, which I think I prefer.
  • Made, most recently, with Pierde Almas Maguey de Lumbre mezcal. Also, substituted Vieux Pontarlier absinthe for the pastis. Amazing smoky vegetal flavor from the mezcal and oregano combination. — ★★★★★

drinkingandthinking commented on 7/28/2018:

Nicely balanced drink! The pastis and oregano work really well together, and I was skeptical... I used Vida mezcal which maybe didn't pack enough of a smoky punch, so I added a bit more and some celery bitters to give it a little more zing. I'll have to try again with the recommended mezcal if I can find it...

Jalisco en Partes Iguales

1 oz Reposado Tequila
1 oz Aromatized wine, Cocchi Americano
1 oz Aperol
1 pn Salt
1 wdg Lime (as garnish)
Instructions

Stir; strain; rocks; garnish.

History

This drink was formerly posted on KC as the "Negroni Jalisco," but since it's what I like to call a Ship of Theseus of a drink (every part has been swapped out from the original), some might find the "Negroni" label inappropriate.
