  • As good as use of Strega as I've come across. The cocktail itself is large. Find a big coupe or scale it down by at least 1/3.
  • Nice. Reverse dry shake with aquafaba led to a greenish yellow drink with a thick white froth. — ★★★★

A version of this is now served at Parliament in Dallas, TX (called the Ancho Cherry Manhattan), swapping Heering for the syrup & then passing cherry wood smoke through the chilled drink.

  • Winter black lodge-esque. Try with more Rye.
  • Even with 2oz bonded rye this is a little too sweet for me. ETA: 2nd try, at 1.5 Ritt, skinny on the CdC, Cocchi vermouth and a dash of Campari for the PeM, I really enjoyed this, upped it from 3 to 4
  • Made perfect with ½ sweet ½ dry vermouth. Also replaced ½ Heering with another ½ t of rye — ★★★★
  • Went with 2 oz rye, 1 oz Ancho.
  • Boozy, spicy, sweet. Used cherry heering. Pushed the rye to 2 oz, a little cloying otherwise. Tempted to go to 2&1/2 rye.
  • Used scant tsp Luxardo Cherry Syrup (the bottled stuff, not from the jar of cherries). Agree with others to use less and to bump up rye.
  • Increase spirit by one ounce

Ajvan commented on 12/14/2019:

Used cherry heering and pushed the rye to 2 oz, as the initial drink was a little cloying for me (spicy tootsie roll). Tempted to push the rye to 2.5.

flickerdart commented on 11/13/2021:

Seeing people take liberty with the last 3 ingredients & amount of whisky, I tried:

2oz Rittenhouse
0.5oz Ancho Reyes
0.5oz Tempus Fugit creme de cacao
0.5oz Cynar
Dash of Luxardo Maraschino

I can definitely see how a fruity bitterness from the Punt e Mes would work better than the vegetal bitterness of the Cynar here. But IMO the strength of the drink is whisky + spicy + chocolate, which this formulation still has - and which works well.

  • Muddling and straining take a while but well worth it. Added 1 TBL simple syrup to 3 drinks in shaker. 1-2TBL seems right for simple syrup. — ★★★★★
  • Made this with Paririe gin and Ferrand dry curacao. Cranberries were a spoonful of cranberry-syrup-solids rather than fresh. Did not have ginger, but didn't miss it. Very tasty, a refreshing profile in the winter.
  • Really tasty, better than the plain cranberry gin smash that was a previous favorite. — ★★★★

Craig E commented on 12/14/2015:

The linked recipe adds superfine sugar or simple syrup to the muddle. I made it without and thought it very nice and balanced without the additional sweetener.

  • Made with Green Spot, very tasty — ★★★★
  • Made with Teeling.
  • Tastes pretty much as expected. Strong, but nice, delicate, candy-like flavors, with a nice accent from the rosemary. Good, strong wintry drink
  • Made it w/ Bourbon by mistake. Loved it.

Excellent cocktail. One of my recent favorites. Note: It's not good when you run out of Irish whiskey and try to sub in blended scotch.
