  • Too sweet, must remove sweet vermouth or something else. It's a bit rough.

  • To reduce the bitterness, I reduced the Fernet Branca to 0.80 oz and increased the Rittenhouse to 1.25 oz. Still too bitter. Added another 1 oz Rittenhouse and 1 dash bitters. Better but rate 2.0 Suggest 0.33 to 0.50 oz Fernet Branca.
  • I love how the Fernet Branca and yellow Charteuse play together!

Not bad - I used Cruzan black strap, Worthy Park and Appleton. Might be better without the super dark substitute and with the overproof.

  • Nice drink. The orange blossom makes the drink. Too small, though! Up everything ¾ instead of ½.
  • Quite sweet (honey-ish of course). Honey, orange, and tobacco. Needs juicy twists. A good after-dinner drink.

Rack Punch

2 Lemon (peel and juice)
5 oz Sugar (Black sugar, see note)
8 oz Green tea (hot, from 1 Tbsp tea)
6 oz Batavia Arrack
6 oz Water
4 oz Lemon juice (strained)
1 pn Nutmeg (as garnish)
Instructions

Make an oleo-saccharum: in a bowl, muddle lemon peel and black sugar hard to release oils, cover with plastic wrap and place somewhere warm for an hour. Add the tea and stir to dissolve the sugar. Let this cool, strain out the peels, then add the remaining ingredients, which should make about 25 ounces of punch. Strain this into a bottle and refrigerate, garnishing with nutmeg for service

Notes

The black sugar I have is Indonesian in origin, and comes as sticks that are gritty, a few inches long, and tan in the middle, but very dark brown otherwise.
