History

When I explained that the concept of the drink was to have something fresh, floral, and effervescent for spring, a guest suggested the name Snowmelt, which stuck.

The Last Mule

1 oz Vodka (Moskovskaya)
1 oz Swedish Punsch, Kronan
1 oz Ginger liqueur, Crème de Gingembre
1 oz Lime juice
2 ds Orange bitters, Regans' orange bitters
Instructions

Shaken with ice, double strained.

Notes

Probably a little too heavy on the Swedish Punsch. The orange bitters helps offset, but next round I think I'll be tapering off on the Kronan. I imagine an orange peel would also be useful, but didn't have any on hand tonight.

Zachary Pearson commented on 4/03/2015:

I know the "Smash" category is broad, but the general consensus is that there's some sort of fruit and some sort of herbal component, usually mint - that it's a Julep on a small plan (to quote Savoy). I think this is publishable, but can you come up with a different name so it doesn't cause problems with the search?  Thanks, Zachary

Curated to Cocchi Americano Rosa so that typo "Cocci americano rose" can be deleted.

Dan commented on 3/31/2015:

Seems hard to believe this needs the simple syrup.

bkemp1984 commented on 8/13/2021:

Used Bulleit Rye and regular Angostura bitters. Agreed, doesn't need any simple. I did a tiny dash but would have been fine without. Mad it took me all these years to finally buy Pierre Ferrand, because it's the most delicious orange liqueur I've ever had by far. This recipe blends it in well

EDIT: Decided to try this one again, not realizing tomorrow, 8/13/22, would be one year since the review above. Anyway, made with no sugar this time and it's great. Even almost too sweet, like I'd add more bitters next time or something for acidity. I don't like sweet drinks but I don't imagine even sweet lovers would dislike this without sugar, but a splash isn't gonna hurt it. EDIT2: Also good with no simple, 1/2 oz PF
