Curated this - changed maraschino cherry syrup to Maraschino liqueur, as per the picture. Sangue Morlacco is their cherry liqueur. Removed "fresh juice" from the lime... we assume fresh juices, etc...

Thanks,

Zachary

Thanks. I submitted this on my phone so I was having some issues with the drag down bars.

Flintlock commented on 3/14/2023:

Very good. A twist on the Brooklyn, tossing away the french vermouth and maraschino in favor of coating your glass with scotch.
I tried this with with Rocker port-finished bourbon instead of Knob Creek. I think that particular bourbon was too sweet for the recipe, and Knob Creek would be more balanced. I think I'll try it next with a smokier Islay.
Edit: Lagavulin 8 worked better with my rocker bourbon.

  • Pretty sour - doubled the syrup, lowered the lime, still too sour for me.

I had a bottle of kirsch of finish and  this was a good choice to experiment with.  I used maurin quina and ginger ale in place of the syrup/soda.  Very refreshing and drinkable but still interesting with the cherry brandy.
