Adam and Eve

1 1⁄2 oz Calvados, Drouin
3⁄8 oz Cranberry syrup (2:1 sugar to cranberry juice)
3⁄8 oz Apple cider vinegar
1 oz Verjus
2 1⁄5 oz Apple cider (spiced)
Instructions

Stir, strain. The recipe calls for this to be served up but the volume seems to call for a larger vessel. At Wallflower they're served out of bottles.

Notes

The original calls for the vinegar and cranberry syrup to be premixed into a shrub.

  • Smoky but sherry dominates. Also a bit sweet.
  • Mostly because of the sherry.
  • Sophisticated and well balanced.

Sounds tasty, Rafa. There must be potential for a series of Poe-based drinks. The Tell-Tale (Lemon) H(e)art, perhaps?


Good idea, Leslie, and a perfect project for one with the skills of a man such as yourself. May I suggest grenadine, or another bloody colorant, for your Tell-Tale Hart? Suggestions for the series: Arthur Gordon Pimm's, Morella (with kirsch or Maraschino), Kingdom by the Sea (King's Ginger, maritime Scotch).



Nice and balanced. I included the elderflower and used fee brothers bitters.

Muddle kumquats in liqueur. Stir to combine and fine strain over packed ice in a julep cup, topping with Champagne, more ice, and a slapped mint sprig. Serve with straw.
