  • An Aviation for the martini lover, as advertised. Better than an Aviation, for sure. Problem is that the Aviation is just... not that good.

  • Used smoked cinnamon; reduced to 1/2 oz. Reduce to 1/4 oz on next round.
  • Has potential, but I'll reduce the cinnamon syrup next time. Candy sweet as written. Also might reduce total amount. A very voluminous drink.
  • Used campari instead of aperol. not sorry. — ★★★★★
  • Bloody well amazing, this one.

Very nice taste but far too sweet.

No punt e mes at home so used cinzano.

Maybe using higher proof bourbon + lowering syrup to 1/2  oz + 3/4 oz aperol...

I had Cocchi Vermouth di Torino, so I upped the bitters each by a dash. Used the Barrel Aged bitters, which worked well.

Grenados Sour

1 1⁄2 oz Pomegranate Liqueur, Pama
3⁄4 oz Bourbon (high proof)
1 oz Lemon juice
1 bsp Rich simple syrup 2:1
1 Egg white
8 Pomegranate seeds (garnish)
Instructions

Add ingredients to a cocktail tin and dry shake for ~30 seconds. Add ice, shake until chilled and double strain into a cube ice filled rocks glass. Garnish with pomegranate seeds

Notes

Pama "Are You Indispensable" Competition Cocktail

History

This cocktail has a wonderful depth of texture and richness that is kept in perfect balance by the Pama and lemon. The high proof bourbon provides the backbone that sours are often lacking
