  • Excellent on a cold night. Not as Fernet-forward as you might expect. Suspect FB version is better than original — ★★★★★

Found the FB version too FB forward at first - tasted harsh for a drink with a good bit of sugar + butter. Got better as it sat for a bit. Look forward to trying with Ram. or other amaros.

Very nice Campari sour.

I was tempted to try a Mescal float. Maybe next time.

jmlinden7 commented on 10/31/2015:

Surprisingly balanced given the lack of sweetness

Craig E commented on 11/01/2015:

Campari is super sweet--it's just also so bitter that the sweetness is easily forgotten. 

5 O'Clock Tea

2 1⁄2 oz Gin, Tanqueray 10 (*masala chai infused)
3⁄4 oz Heavy whipping cream
2 dr Jamaican #1 bitters, Bittercube
2 t Brown sugar (packed)
Instructions

Shake, double strain, up. Serve with Parle-G biscuits

Notes

*in a 1 cup mason jar layer: 1 vanilla bean (halved and split), 1 stick of cinnamon (broken), 5 cardamom pods (bruised), 1 star anise, 1/2" ginger (thinly sliced), 1 tsp black tea, 1/2 tsp black peppercorns (bruised), 1/2 tsp cloves, 1/2 tsp lemon grass, 1/4 tsp grated nutmeg. Fill the mason jar w/ gin, seal, and shake 3-5 times over 24 hours. Strain and top off w/ gin

History

After my trip to Munnar, India, I came back with so many spices for masalas and chai's--I had to work on an infusion. I was a bit surprised how bracing the bitterness from the black tea and spices was, but I'd never infused with spices that were that fresh, so I ended up boosting the base spirit to balance it out. This drink ended up intense in spiciness and tempered bitterness, with an excellent mouth feel.

Taco Truck

2 oz Mezcal
1 oz Campari (pineapple and cinnamon infused)
1 oz Sweet vermouth
Instructions

Put the ingredients in a mixing glass full of ice and stir to chill. Strain into a double old fashioned glass over a single large ice cube. Twist an orange peel over the surface of the drink and garnish with the peel.

Notes

For the pineapple and cinnamon-€“infused Campari: Peel, core and chop a whole pineapple into 1-2" pieces and place them in a 1-gallon glass container with a tight lid. Gently toast 3 cinnamon sticks in a pan over low heat until warmed and slightly smoky. Add them to the jar along with 1 750-ml. bottle Campari. Let the mixture infuse for 12 hours, then use tongs to remove the cinnamon sticks. Let the mixture infuse another 2 days then strain into a clean glass container.
