  • Outstanding holiday tipple. The creamy ingredients soften Fernet's medicinal edge, and its minty quality fits in perfectly. — ★★★★★

Habibi

Instructions

Shake, strain, up.

Notes

A nice variation is to replace an ounce of the apricot brandy with an ounce of a flavorful white rum—Banks 5 Island, say.

  • Almost unbearably sweet out of the gate. I used Tempus Fugit Noyaux and Liber Orgeat. Added 2 ds Jerry Thomas and 1 ds Black Walnut bittters to add enough bitter/depth to be drinkable.

I used Educated Barfly's orgeat recipe and it was too sweet to me too. Upped the lemon juice to 1 oz and used 2 dashes of bitters. Nice texture and flavor overall!

  • Improvised with Becherovka for cinnamon syrup and Punt e Mes for CAF. Very nice, but needed some simple or extra vermouth for acid balance because I omitted the champagne. — ★★★★
