Po Po Punch

9 oz Ramazzotti
3 oz Bourbon (bonded)
3 oz Simple syrup
3 oz Lemon juice
6 ds Bitters, Angostura
1 Orange (to make cordial; see instructions)
Instructions

Peel a large orange and combine the peels in a small bowl with 1/2 cup of sugar to make an oleo saccharum. Cover and let macerate overnight, occasionally stirring. The next day, add the juice of the peeled orange to the mixture and stir in another 1/4 cup of sugar until dissolved. Add the punch's other ingredients, refrigerate until chilled, add a punch-sized block of ice, and ladle over crushed ice to make six servings. Garnish with orange wheels and cinnamon.

Notes

Pouring Ribbons uses a concentrated, bright orange cordial to add orange flavor to drinks without the insipid wateriness that accompanies straight juice, thereby avoiding the problem of what Dan calls "the fruit of cocktail death."

  • Excellent OF riff. 5 twists are not necessary. I used three and orange flavor was plenty.
Similar cocktails

Bracingly bitter with alcohol heat, but with just enough balancing richness to make this a complex and interesting drink. Unicum is the star, but well supported by the Cherry Heering, orange liqueur, and orange peel. (I stirred liquid ingredients with ice, then strained into rocks glass with a large rock and three orange peels.) An engaging sipper.

  • A bit too sweet for my tastes. I prefer 1:0.75:0.75 pisco:chartreuse:suze.
  • The cocktail seems to bit large. I would do 3/4 oz of everything instead of 1oz.

mako commented on 11/23/2016:

Cocktail came out a bit on the large size. I'd do 3/4oz of the pisco/chartreuse/suze instead of the full oz instead.

Delicious, and I have no problem with the size (maybe I just have big glasses). But what struck me most is how much it looks, smells and tastes like Strega. This is by no means a bad thing.

  • Fantastic. Bitter, sweet, herbal, smoky. Made with Talisker Skye. A late summer sunset with a cigar.
  • Dark, smoky, sweet, and sophisticated. Could take the place of dessert. Overwhelming smokiness lessens after a few sips. Dark caramel and tobacco.

  • Expressed and discarded orange peel, it added nicely to the drink. — ★★★★★
  • after dinner sweet tooth sipper
  • looks interesting!
  • very niace, used vida and rum fire, played very well with the sherry. MAybe cut back sherry(too sweet)
  • Try with East India Solera
  • needs to have the sherry balanced
  • Unusual and quite good. Used Alvear Cream Sherry (ximenez). Managed to be dry, rich and boozy at the same time.
  • 'twas a bit too sweet for my taste, reducing the Ximénez to 1/2 oz and using 1/2 oz of East India solera dried it out a bit.
  • Good. Used El Maestro Sierra PX and was not too sweet - actually added a bit more sherry as it was a bit lost initially.
  • Delicious, complex. Perhaps a tad sweet for our taste (may depend on the sweetness of the PX Sherry(We used a different PX sherry)), but I quibble. Will certainly make again.

We made it strictly according to the recipe: at that sweetness, perhaps better as dessert drink than aperitif. (Spouse says, though: No sweeter than a Manhattan.)  We’ll try with slightly less PX Sherry.  Rich & balanced: all the flavors come through.
