Habibi

2 oz Dry apricot brandy
3⁄4 oz Pineapple syrup
3⁄4 oz Lime juice
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. — ★★★★

Instructions

Shake, strain, rock.

History

There are several drinks going by "Bacardí Cocktail" attested to in old books; the most famous is a Daiquirí reddened by grenadine, and the oldest I know of is a stirred drink of Bacardí, sweet vermouth, and pineapple syrup. Here's a mashup.

  • 4.5 if I could. Agree with easy on the bitters
  • Not too heavy on the bitters.

wonsuponatime commented on 1/06/2024:

Made with previous suggestion (light on the bitters = 1 dash… still overpowers the delicate nature of the Stiggins’ Fancy. Next time I make this I’ll use a dropper.) Overall I was expecting this to be sweeter but the small amount of lime really sharpens the drink up - quite dry. I’m not one to alter an old recipe but, personally, I’d kick the Maraschino up 50% and (don’t hate!) swap the Biano Vermouth with one of my favorites: Cocchi Storico di Torino. I actually like the dry aspect but it’s an odd flavor profile when expecting a bit more sweetness. And that wonderful pineapple rum (I do not normally enjoy rum but I can’t not have Stiggins’ stocked to sip on here and there. It’s a fantastic expression!)
