It's a nice drink and I'll make it again, but the quantities are odd. Halve it and you end up with (nearly) two proper drinks.

  • Fun, sweet, and funky. Good rosemary flavour.
  • simple yet sophisticated and incredibly delicious
  • Delightful. Would probably like more if hit had a bit more complexity /depth to flavors.
  • Given the ingredients, it'd be hard to go wrong with this one.

4 oz Tonic water

Notes

*rangpur lime

History

A simple gin and tonic twist with an Indian flair--made in preparation for my holiday trip to Mumbai. The Rangpur Gin and limes have a stronger flavor from the peel, and the bitters and curaçao also pull the drink more towards the bitter

  • Good sour - used Jerry Thomas Decanter as sub for whiskey barrel. Combination tastes a lot like it has allspice dram - nice flavor, but I'm not sure that I taste the genever/becherovka/drambuie distinctly.

Shawn C commented on 1/07/2024:

While I agree that the Genever is lost behind the rest of the drink as the recipe is written, it isn't the Becherovka that dominates from what I could tell. Instead, the Fee's Whiskey Barrel Aged Bitters seem to impart more cinnamon and baking spice notes than the Becherovka. This is what I gleaned from mistakenly making the cocktail first with Fee's Walnut bitters (thanks to the Expatriot recipe being right above Exporter in "Drunk & Told"). When I remade it with the Whisky Barrel bitters the increase in cinnamon and other masking flavors was noticeable. With the Walnut there was still some slight malt to the body (but not much.)

Although the cocktail is good, I found it to be rather sweet, and I intend to knock the Drambuie down to 1/2 oz to see if the balance is better. At the same time I plan to increase the Genever by 1/4 or even 1/2 oz.

Fizz de Provence

1 oz Genever, Bols
1 oz Gin, Hendrick's
3⁄4 oz Elderflower liqueur, St. Germain
1⁄2 oz Crème Yvette
3⁄4 oz Meyer lemon juice
1⁄4 oz Lime juice
5 ds Peychaud's Bitters
1 oz Heavy whipping cream
1 ? Egg white
2 spg Rosemary
2 spg Thyme
2 oz Club soda
Instructions

Take 1 sprig of thyme and rosemary--remove leaves from the stems, express and place leaves in the bottom of your mixing glass. Add liquors, egg white, cream, and 2 dashes of bitters. Dry shake. Add ice and lemon & lime juice, and shake till chilled. Double strain into a rastal style tall goblet. Let sit for 15 seconds to build the meringue; add club to fill to the lip, garnish with 1 sprig each of thyme and rosemary, and top with three dashes of bitters

Notes

Like most fizzes, it's easiest to drink with a cocktail straw

History

This started out as a twist on the Third Rail #2, but after adding and removing all but the calvados I ended up with a drink with a more French minded flair. It has a sweet richness and yet an acid-enough edge that I ignored the "don't touch the third rail" warning

flickerdart commented on 6/14/2021:

For lack of ingredients, made this with Plymouth Navy Strength Gin, Lemorton Reserve Calvados, Pink House Alchemy grapefruit bitters. A very solid gin sour with a floral fruity note. If you don't like the sourness, a little bit of wildflower honey syrup would only improve the taste.
