Devil's Kitchen

1 oz Mezcal
1 oz Pineapple rum
1⁄2 oz Cynar
1⁄4 oz Crème de Banane
1⁄4 oz Ancho Reyes chile liqueur
2 ds Bitters, Bittermens Xocolatl Mole
1 twst Grapefruit peel (As garnish)
Instructions

Stir with ice, strain into a coupe glass, and garnish with a grapefruit twist.

Notes

I originally made this in an old fashioned glass with a large ice cube. While there was a nice progression of flavors over time, it started to die when diluted too much. When I mentioned this on Instagram, folks tried it up and replied that they enjoyed it served that way, so I am going with my hunch.

History

I recently looked over various recipes for ingredients that worked well with Ancho Reyes and decided to create a cocktail. Of the 10 Ancho Reyes drinks on the blog, 7 contain mezcal, 2 with Cynar, 2 with mole bitters, and 1 with banana liqueur; moreover, I figured that pineapple rum would bolster the tropical notes of the banana despite it not having previously been paired with Ancho Reyes in my tasting history. Finally, I dubbed this the Devil's Kitchen after a neighborhood described in the 1933 book The Barbary Coast as a rough one in San Francisco during the latter half of the 19th century.

1 oz Genepy

Instructions

Thoughts & Pears

1 1⁄2 oz Pear eau de vie
1⁄2 oz Rhum Agricole, Trois Rivieres
3⁄4 oz Lime juice
1⁄2 oz Orgeat (1:1)
1⁄4 oz White Crème de Menthe, Giffard
1 ds Bitters (tiki)
1 sli Pear (dehydrated)
Instructions

Shake all ingredients with ice and strain into a chilled V-martini glass. Spear the pear slice with a cocktail pick, mist it with mezcal (if available), then garnish.

Notes

While I like an unaged agricole in this, it's a real crowd pleaser when made with a more neutral rum like Flor de Cana 4. Basically any 'white' rum will work however.

The bitters I used originally were homemade spiced pineapple ones, with a strong cinnamon and anise note behind the pineapple. Ideally don't use anything that will change the colour of the drink too dramatically.

Werewolves of London

1 1⁄2 oz Gin, Tanqueray 10
3⁄4 oz Manzanilla sherry
1 oz Pineapple juice
1 oz Coconut cream
1⁄2 oz Lime juice
1 ds Orange bitters, Regans' orange bitters
2 Maraschino cherry, Luxardo (as garnish)
1 lf Pineapple (as garnish)
Instructions

Whip shake ingredients with crushed ice, then dump into a highball glass. Top with fresh crushed ice and garnish. Serve with a straw.

History

A cross between a Piña Colada and Chris Jepson's London Calling, named for the Warren Zevon song in which the narrator states he saw 'a werewolf drinking a Piña Colada at Trader Vic's, and his hair was perfect'.

I actually named this drink the singular 'Werewolf of London' but a cocktail by this name already exists in Kindred's Database. Gotta say, while I think mine fits the name better, the other is a tasty libation.
