  • made as instructed - BUT shook instead of stirred, maybe that affected this. Seemed a bit bland.
  • Tasty, but maybe this has one too many things going on.

Yankee Hotel Foxtrot

1 oz Gin, City of London
1 oz Cynar
1⁄2 oz Lime juice
1⁄4 oz Aquavit, North Shore
3 ds Peach bitters, Fee Brothers Peach
Instructions

Shake, strain, coupe. Lime twist.

Notes

This recipe is based around North Shore's Private Reserve Aquavit Batch 176

History

North Shore's Batch 176 has an intense curry scent and flavor that doesn't play well with others. This recipe gains depth through the combination of a touch of Batch 176 with a healthy dose of Cynar. It is a riff on the equally bombastic Trident cocktail created by Robert Hess.

There's bourbon on the breath of the singer you love so much.

ezoh commented on 1/28/2014:

It goes without saying - but I'm sure you meant 3 dashes of bitters and not 3 ounces!

Zachary Pearson commented on 1/28/2014:

Curated this slightly - thanks ezoh! Changed Removed Herb Liqueur from Cynar. Changed 3 oz of peach bitters to 3 dashes.

Thanks,

Zachary

  • A bit too sweet, lighter on elderflower/heavier on bitters for more balance. Considering adding another ingredient.
  • Made with Plymouth Navy Strength (the only non-London-dry gin I had on hand). This was appealing and deceptively smooth. Floral of course. — ★★★★

MOJO1229 commented on 5/12/2018:

The "Midnight Prayer" is a pleasant drink, with subtle flavors that come out as the drink lingers--for example, as you're playing cribbage. I rate this drink at 4.0. Try it and let's see where the rating goes.

  • Well-balanced cocktail that nicely features Bols Genever and also Yellow Chartreuse. The brilliance of a cocktail that tastes good with only four ingredients. Worth putting on my home cocktail menu.
  • Made with Strega. Quite an interesting complexification of a gin sour. I even got a little bubble gum from this on the sip. Nice finish. — ★★★★
