Saffron and Bitter Orange Martini

1 2⁄3 oz Gin, Gabriel Boudier Saffron
2 1⁄2 t Bianco Vermouth, Dolin
2 1⁄2 t Orange Curaçao, Marie Brizard (Dry or any bitter orange liqueur)
1 ds Orange bitters, Bitter Truth Orange
Instructions

Stir and strain into a martini glass

Notes

Originally made at Mother's Ruin Gin Palace using liqueurs and bitters we make on site. But I think a good version could be made using commercially available ingredients. A good orange bitters of any brand, and a bitter orange liqueur such as dry curaçao should stand in well

  • I like it, but it needs something to provide some dynamic tension. I think that next time I will muddle in some black pepper, then double strain.

Zachary Pearson commented on 9/05/2015:

Curated this: Capitalized the name of the drink. Cleaned up the notes section quite a bit - added Gabriel Boudier Saffron as a brand of gin. Corrected Dolin entry to Blanc Vermouth. Cleaned up the instructions - removed the recap of the drink. Thanks, Zachary

Joe White commented on 12/17/2022:

Subbed in Sipsmith for the Gin. Subbed in Cocchi Extra Dry for the vermouth. Added in cracked smoked black pepper and shook as though there were citrus. Added half a star, IMHO.

Honey Suckle

1 jig Cuban rum
1 ds Sherry
1⁄2 t Honey
1⁄2 oz Lime juice (juice of one lime)
1 oz Club soda
Instructions

Stir with ice and fill with sparkling water; serve in a goblet. Alternatively, shake and strain over soda.

Notes

The original calls for (Cuban) Bacardi. A modern update might be 1 1/2 oz light rum 1/2 oz dry or off-dry sherry 1/2 oz lime 1/2 oz honey syrup served on the rocks with a splash of club soda.

  • Apple juice, or apple cider vinegar flavors. A cool early-autumnal refresher. (Or later fall with a more aged rum than the Flor de Cana 4 I used.) — ★★★

  • Great drink! Almost creamy with the orgeat, a smooth, tiki style drink with floral notes. Chatreuse was good on the nose. Imagine gin could work too instead of pisco. — ★★★★

Bellini (out of season)

1 oz Peach liqueur, Rothman & Winter
1⁄2 oz Elderflower liqueur, St. Germain
1 t Lemon juice
4 oz Prosecco
Instructions

Build in a tin to let the foam die down and then pour into a chilled flute.

Notes

Peaches have a short season and good frozen peach puree isn't always available, so here's a fresh-tasting but unseasonal alternative.
