Notes

Pama "Are You Indispensable" Competition Cocktail

History

I didn't want a sweetening component in the cocktail to tame the wonderful sweet-tart character of Pama, so inspiration struck in the form of the crusta which allows the imbiber to adjust the level of sweetness sip to sip. In place of the traditional brandy and lemon I chose tequila and lime backed by the island spice of allspice dram

Moderated this slightly - specified Cynar as the Amaro, specified brand of lemon bitters.

Thanks,

This drink, Klaus Kinski, as is, I rated as 3.5. The ingredients blend together OK, but the overall taste is somewhat flat and definitely "heavy." It needs a contrasting flavor, so I added two dashes of blood orange bitters, but the other ingredients overwhelmed the flavor of the bitters. I decided, then, that what is needed is a zest from a citrus fruit, I added grapefruit zest, and it was helpful. Next time, I'm going to try orange or lemon (maybe Meyer Lemon zest). If anyone else comes up with a better solution, be sure to write a comment, I'd like to hear from others who have "fiddled" with this cocktail. Thanks.

@MOJOjojo I believe I made this with an orange twist. I'll add it to the drink recipe.

Clear, but intense reddish-orange color. Rated highly by all three of us. Provides a good balance of the herbal, bitter, mild rum hogo, and rye.
