Blunderbuss

2 oz Apple brandy, Black Dirt
1 oz Lemon juice
3⁄4 oz Orgeat, Tiki Adam's Toasted Orgeat (or honey syrup)
1⁄2 oz Ginger syrup (spicy)
1 ds Bitters, Angostura
1 spg Mint (as garnish)
Instructions

Shake, strain over crushed ice in a Collins, garnish, serve with straw.

Notes

Black Dirt is a bonded apple brandy with a luscious, full body and a delicious flavor of apple candied with bourbon-y caramel and char. Compared to Laird's bonded, it is less hot and less thin, while the same proof and comparable in age.

  • Nice sour with mild pleasing funk from the rums. Bonal gets a bit lost despite the quantity beneath the lemon, rum funk, and chocolate. Made with Neisson Eleve Sous Bois, Smith and Cross, and Scrappy's chocolate.
  • Nice complexity of bitterness. Tang of lemon is just right. Goes quickly from rich to dry.

This is an excellent drink.  The herbal bitterness of the Bonal complements the richness and floral notes of the rums, and the dash of lemon juice lifts it.  Very nice, thanks to the creator.

sevyryelsdorn commented on 2/09/2018:

The Bonal gets a bit lost for me beneath two powerfully flavored rum/rhums and the lemon, and I love Bonal. Perhaps a true amaro or a partial replacement with a pie spice amaro? Or perhaps Meletti and could forgo the chocolate bitters?
