There's not a lot of "there" there. I doubled the peach bitters and hit it with an equal amount of Peychaud's.

Very nicely balanced last word variant. Used honey syrup rather than honey. The combination of the botanicals from the yellow chartreuse and then maraschino is a really nice, complex evolution.

Sencha Flip

2 oz Gin, Plymouth

Instructions

Dry-shake, then add a few ice cubes and shake again. Strain into a chilled glass.

Notes

“This cocktail was inspired by my adoration of Sencha Japanese tea. Many people use Matcha, however Sencha has more complexity and flavor so I prefer it over Matcha in certain cocktails.” Jason Walsh.

1 bsp Grade B maple syrup, Deep Mountain
Instructions

Add Maple syrup, Allspice Dram and Bitters in old fashioned glass. Swirl until blended. Add large cube of ice and pour over Chai Infused bourbon. Garnish with Orange twist.
