  • Made with all Laird's bonded apple brandy, and doubled the grenadine to replace the simple. Homemade dram. This was super delicious. — ★★★★★
  • Used twice the grenadine instead of simple syrup, specifically used Cortas Grenadine — ★★★★

1⁄2 oz Calvados
1⁄2 oz Lemon juice
1⁄4 oz Honey syrup (2:1)
Instructions

Shake, strain, up.

Notes

1. Infusing the Scotch with chamomile is nice here. Apple, too. 2. Apple bitters would probably work instead of the orange ones, but I don't have any.

Agreed. Like a minty gin & tonic. Wondering how it would taste with less simple syrup and slightly more chartreuse (we cut the syrup in half already, not being fond of overly sweet drinks). Also, will try it with muddled mint. We used Navy Hill soda + tonic, which seemed to work well.

  • Also didn't find it too sweet. Pleasant. Wonder if it'd be good scaled up and served on the rocks.
  • Hard to go wrong with much Cardamaro. Suprisingly not dominated, though. I didn't think it was too sweet. 3.5★
  • Very smooth. Might leave out the simple
  • Sweet

1 1⁄2 oz Pimm's No. 1 Cup
1⁄2 oz Gin, Beefeater
1⁄4 oz Simple syrup (Fat)
3⁄4 oz Lemon juice
1 rinse Cynar
Instructions

Build in shaker. Go a little fat on the simple but not a half ounce. Rinse chilled, stemmed glass with Cynar, leaving a bit at the bottom (more can be fun but I like to leave this one accessible). Shake well but not too much as Pimm's doesn't have the proof. Strain and garnish with a few more drops Peychaud's.

Instructions

Build In Mixing Glass, Add Large Ice Cubes, Stir, and Strain into a Chilled, Stemmed Glass.

Infuse 6 grams of Chamomile into 1 bottle of Noilly Pratt Ambre for 10 minutes. Not really a sweet vermouth, but works perfect in this instance.
