I decided to try this since I've been staring at my bottle of sloe gin (bitter truth) for 3 years and I'd like to make space for something else. And, I love my Lemon Hart 80 (which sadly is now unavailable) and wanted to see if my unopened 151 hit the same delicious flavor notes. I knew this was going to be boozy, but on top of that it's quite sour with nothing to round it out. Maybe this was developed with sweeter sloe gins. I added maybe 1/2 oz each orgeat and sweet vermouth and a big mint sprig, which helped a lot, but I'm still in the market for an awesome sloe gin recipe. And open to suggestions on which El Dorado is closest to my Lemon Hart 80.

Shots and Stripes Forever

2 oz Gin, Brooklyn
3⁄4 oz Lemon juice
1⁄2 oz Blue Curaçao
1⁄4 oz Vanilla syrup
2 ds Orange bitters
3 ds Peychaud's Bitters (as garnish)
Instructions

Shake all ingredients except Peychaud's and strain over crushed ice in a Collins or other tall glass to create a blue layer. Pack crushed ice above that to create a white layer, and top with a red layer of Peychaud's (or Angostura). Alternatively, ignore the red/white/blue thing and the Peychaud's and just enjoy it as a fancy sour.

1⁄2 oz Pelinkovac

Shake or stir and strain into a chilled cocktail glass. Garnish with a lemon twist.

Since this drink is quite bitter, adjust the amount of maraschino freely to taste. Use all Eastern European brands for maximum thematic effect.

Shawn C commented on 9/04/2023:

I would like to rate this a 3.5, but can't go as low as 3, so it gets a 4. The drink, as I prepared it, seemed to capture the essence of the Croatian/eastern European liqueurs and is worth a try for regional/stylistic perspective if nothing else. I used Maraska Slivovitz, Badel Pelinkovac, and Maraska Maraschino (1/6 oz - 1 U.S. barspoon). As one might expect, the slivovitz dominates, enough that the cinnamon heat of the usually assertive Becherovka is in a supporting role rather being up front. It has some mild sweetness, and the Pelinkovac provides wormwood bitter and somewhat herbal background. If you don't like slivovitz (or Kirchwasser), then steer clear of this one. There is room for experimenting with the bones of this cocktail.

  • Daiquiri with its fair share of funk and grapefruity bitterness.
  • Nicely complex and balanced with almost no sweetness
  • Light, delicious, summery, mildly bitter, and still accessible. Surprisingly complex for a light cocktail. — ★★★★★

Looks great. Might try this one out on a guest. I'll have to change the name lest they also get the image of Papa Hemingway riding a pole in their heads.

MOJO1229 commented on 4/16/2021:

Having tasted the Hemingway Stripper Pole, I have to admit it's worthy of a 4.0 rating. I'd like Zach to explain, however, how he came to know that this cocktail tastes "like a buttered stripper pole." The story, Zach! Please!

Zachary Pearson commented on 4/16/2021:

All I can say about that incident is this: If you've ever been in the wine business in north Texas , chances are you've been to a strip club. And if your visit comes in the middle of summer, you know what Batavia Arrack smells like.  Zachary

Shawn C commented on 5/29/2023:

Definitely leans bitter and dry. The amount of lime juice seems high, making this more of a sour/dry than I prefer even though I went a little skinny on the lime. I might try again with 1/2 oz lime juice.
