  • Had with pernod, much more than a splash of green chartreuse, and mint bitters. Used a large ice cube instead of crushed ice (no ice crusher). Lovely, crisp, and anise-y, wound up significantly greener with the mint bitters.
  • Lime and Liquorish, right up my alley. Made with extra Chartreuse
  • Black licorice and lime with a vague herbal background, a lot like a Dr. Funk. Could use a bit more Chartreuse for complexity.

1 cube Candied ginger

Instructions

History

My ginger twist on the classic "May Daisy" cocktail. It's definitely sweeter, but the intense ginger, lemon, and interesting depth from the rhubarb bitters keeps it from being cloying

  • Delicious Ginger and Lemon with great complex herbal layers thanks to Chartreuse and Rhubarb
  • Very good but as usual for me I like it with only 1/2 oz. Green Chartreuse. Might try it with Yellow too. — ★★★★★

Minnehaha Cocktail

1 1⁄2 oz Gin
3⁄4 oz Dry vermouth
3⁄4 oz Sweet vermouth
1⁄4 oz Orange juice
1 ds Pastis (optional)
Instructions

Shake, strain, up. *pastis float is optional

Notes

The optional pastis, for me, is very dependent on the choice of gin

History

The Minnehaha (a Lakota Sioux word for "curling water" or "waterfall") is one of those classic cocktails that has 101 different recipes. This is close to the Savoy version, but I went lighter on the orange juice. I'm assuming there will be a lot of interpretations for this cocktail's build.

Just an FYI: The Appleton Special line was rebranded as Kingston 62 in 2020 in case anyone wants to stick to the brand specifically called out in the recipe.

Netminder69 commented on 5/15/2024:

Tasty drink. The chartreuse really is front and center in the taste profile, but the other elements play nicely in the background supporting the chartreuse. I made it using Appleton Signature and OFTD.

Dominant Tonic

2 oz Gin, Broker's
3⁄4 oz Grapefruit juice
3⁄4 oz Herbal liqueur, Yellow Chartreuse
1⁄4 oz Lime juice
1⁄4 oz Simple syrup
3 oz Tonic water (3-4)
Instructions

Shake, strain over tonic on a rock.

Notes

I contacted the author of the linked article, who told me that she begged John Ginetti, 116 Crown's owner, for the ratios, to no avail. So here's a guess! It's basically a Cloister & Tonic.

Very nice. Not as good as its older brother from Trinidad but a nice use of Fernet in a cocktail.
