Curated this a bit: removed fresh squeezed from the lemon juice - we assume that. Moved the orange foam recipe to the notes section.

Thanks,

Zachary

Fernet Jelínek is unique, and not at all like Branca or similar Fernets. It's more like a traditional amaro, with a flavor profile somewhere between Becherovka and Averna.

  • Adds another dimension. Better than the original IMO.
  • Made with Manzanilla and strong gin and tasted pretty like a Negroni ! — ★★★★
  • I used fino sherry, and it was quite quite delicious. A dryer Negroni, with yes a Spanish kick.
  • Truly fantastic cocktail. The quality of the Amontillado is not lost. You will taste the difference. I used El Maestro Sierra Amontillado 12 años but also Bodegas Rey Fernando de Castilla. Still great :-) — ★★★★★
  • Used Tanqueray Malacca gin for the initial try of this cocktail. Somewhat sweet, but not the typical pronounced juniper found in many gins.

MOJO1229 commented on 6/10/2016:

<br />I'm surprised that this drink was posted two years ago and, until now, no one has commented on it or rated it. This is a lovely, tasty drink, whose ingredients blend together well despite being so disparate. There is not, for example, the marked bitterness associated with Campari or gin's Juniiper. But the sweet vermouth makes its presence known despite its relatively small quantity. For this drink I used all top-shelf brands: Tanqueray Malacca gin, Contratto sweet vermouth, Character (a medium dry Amontillado sherry by Sandeman), and, of course, Campari. For those who are not fond of a dry sherry taste, I dscovered by accident that using only 1 1/4 oz of Amontillado results in a somewhat sweeter, but still delicious cocktail. Imbibe!

Stew,

How much orange peel? Could you add it to the ingredient list?

Thanks,

Zachary

mahastew commented on 4/14/2014:

Done. I guess "slice" is descriptive enough.

lesliec commented on 4/16/2014:

This is very good! We used Licor 43 for the vanilla. It's quite a large drink, but still seemed to be gone too soon ...

mahastew commented on 4/17/2014:

Glad you liked it. I just made a version with Licor 43 and maguey sweet sap, and I agree it's yum. Since almost nobody is going to be able to get their hands on a bottle of Nanys unless they go to Cabo or the like, I went ahead and updated the recipe to include Licor 43 as an option. Thanks for the note!

Sundae

1 1⁄2 oz Jamaican rum, Smith & Cross
1⁄2 oz Brandy, Germain-Robin
1⁄2 oz Water
1⁄2 oz Crème de Cacao, Marie Brizard
1⁄4 oz Lime juice
1 ds Bitters, Bittermens Xocolatl Mole
1⁄4 oz Jamaican rum, Smith & Cross (as float)
Instructions

Shake hard for 45 seconds, until the tin is almost too cold to touch. strain, float remaining rum.

Notes

I was at a cocktail competition a few days ago and one of the competitors served a S&C drink that was dilute enough to be milky. It dawned on me that the rum goes through a banana phase and a milky one at different dilutions, and this drink takes advantage of that.
