I never would have thought to combine calvados and mezcal, but this works really well! It's sweet with a slight hint of smoke. Thank you for this recipe!

I had a wonderful cocktailing experience at Café Maude in South Minneapolis thanks to their incredible bar staff. This drink is a clever interpretation of the classic Manhattan, and I'm always happy to see Zirbenz used appropriately in a drink

  • Used Starbucks cold brew. Not bad, but maybe a bit too strong on the coffee. Definitely different though. Probably going to grow on me.

Robbyfresh commented on 9/19/2015:

Tasty. I like to drop the maraschino and use a full 1/2 oz of Heering. But that's just me.

jensck commented on 12/24/2016:

Big +1 to using Heering instead of Maraschino. One of my favorite drinks of all time when made this way!

Artur B commented on 10/04/2024:

Don't have a Cherry Heering, switching to budget Cherry Brandy - still very good.

Rafa,

Can you clarify the coconut syrup recipe? It's 3 parts of what to 1 part of coconut milk?

Thanks,

Zachary

DrunkLab commented on 11/03/2013:

It seems likely that Maison Premiere's house coconut mix is three parts coconut cream to one part coconut milk, the same as Donna and, I believe, a few other Brooklyn establishments. I've updated accordingly. I'll check with the MP guys later to make sure.
