  • 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. — ★★★★

1 oz Cardamaro
3⁄4 oz Lime juice
3⁄4 oz Ginger-Honey Syrup
1⁄2 t Tamarind chutney

Notes

A mustache cup was used by 19th Century sporting men to keep their tipples out of their mustaches. For more on the sporting class, see Wondrich's Imbibe!

History

This will probably remain the only drink on KindredCocktails to specify tamarind chutney.

Murciélago

1 1⁄2 oz Pineapple rum, Plantation Stiggins' Fancy
3⁄4 oz Bianco Vermouth
2 ds Bitters
Instructions

Shake, strain, rock.

History

There are several drinks going by "Bacardí Cocktail" attested to in old books; the most famous is a Daiquirí reddened by grenadine, and the oldest I know of is a stirred drink of Bacardí, sweet vermouth, and pineapple syrup. Here's a mashup.

  • 4.5 if I could. Agree with easy on the bitters
  • Not too heavy on the bitters.

Made with previous suggestion (light on the bitters = 1 dash… still overpowers the delicate nature of the Stiggins’ Fancy. Next time I make this I’ll use a dropper.) Overall I was expecting this to be sweeter but the small amount of lime really sharpens the drink up - quite dry. I’m not one to alter an old recipe but, personally, I’d kick the Maraschino up 50% and (don’t hate!) swap the Biano Vermouth with one of my favorites: Cocchi Storico di Torino. I actually like the dry aspect but it’s an odd flavor profile when expecting a bit more sweetness. And that wonderful pineapple rum (I do not normally enjoy rum but I can’t not have Stiggins’ stocked to sip on here and there. It’s a fantastic expression!)

  • Cut the cinnamon syrup to 1/4 oz. and the pineapple juice to 1/2 oz. -- seemed like it would be awfully sweet otherwise.
