  • Amazing drink. That said, next time I make it I am goign to try it with a dash of Dashfire's Spiced Apple Bitters. I have a feeling it will turn it up to 11.

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

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. — ★★★★

1⁄2 oz Irish whiskey, Connemara (or other peated whisk(e)y)
1 oz Cardamaro
3⁄4 oz Lime juice
3⁄4 oz Ginger-Honey Syrup
1⁄2 t Tamarind chutney

1 1⁄2 oz Vanilla Soda water

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.
