  • Nice, balanced spirit-forward cocktail. Watch the amount of benedictine.
  • Alto Cucina/Doe's Path via Vieux Carre. Found via Eric's Tumblr.

Being a huge Cynar fan, it fit right in with this Vieux Carre variation. Nicely done.


brett kozinn commented on 7/30/2018:

Nice, but the Cynar gets a bit lost for me. Might up it to 3/4 and try again.


Winterfall

Instructions

Stir, strain, rocks glass/no ice. Drop or discard twist according to your Sazerac preference.

History

Created for MxMo LXXX: Anise, December 2013. A lazy (no rinsing!) riff on the Sazerac.

  • The Peychauds make this pretty but add little taste given the Galliano. I like the idea of this as a 2 ingredient 1:1 cocktail.

1 oz Speyside Scotch, Glenfarclas 105 (or other high proof Scotch)

The Sherbet Fountain

2 oz Rye
1⁄4 oz Absinthe
1⁄2 oz Ginger syrup
1⁄2 oz Lemon juice
1 part Sugar (Sherbet powder for rim)
Instructions

Shake all ingredients over ice, double strain in sherbet powder rimmed tulip glass.

Notes

*Sherbet Powder: 1 tsp citric acid, 1 tsp baking soda, 1 tsp lemon powder, 1/3 cup icing sugar.

History

Sherbet Fountain is a fizzy, tart, and sweet powder my British mother let me eat when I was a kid that came with a stick of black licorice which was meant to be dipped into the powder and licked off. (Sort of a more sophisticated Fun Dip). This is my homage to that candy.

Canteiro

1 oz Madeira (Finest Medium Rich)
1 oz Haitian Rum, Barbancourt 8
3⁄4 oz Madeira (Rainwater)
1⁄4 oz Simple syrup (piloncillo syrup, see note)
1 bsp Bitters, Bittermens New Orleans Coffee (about 2 droppers)
1 twst Orange peel (as garnish)
1 sli Chili pepper (fresh, like a Cayenne - as garnish)
Instructions

Stir, strain, garnish. For the garnish, cut a swath of orange peel, slit it down the middle and fit a thin strip of chile into the slit. It should just give a bare heat to the drink.

Notes

I'm using Henriques and Henriques for the Madeira. For the piloncillo syrup, melt a cone of piloncillo sugar in sufficient water and simmer until dissolved. Cool slightly and strain into a squeeze bottle. Preserve with a bit of vodka.

  • I added a line of black walnut bitters. I don't understand the low rating. New top favorite!
  • Odd but interesting combination. The fernet takes it in an interesting and somewhat surprising direction but is a little overpowering. Looks like swampwater.
