There is a high star anise flavor to this cocktail. This one really grew on me.

Wee Paunch

2 oz Irish whiskey
1 sli Lemon (lemon coin; a cut of peel and pith containing a bit of flesh and juice)
1⁄2 t Barley malt syrup
Instructions

Build in glass over ice, stir, rest, sip.

Notes

Commercially available barley malt syrup is optimized for baking, not stirring, so to make it work in this drink I heat a bit of it in water on the stove until the color and flavor have mixed in. Malta sodas, such as Goya and India, have a similar flavor and can be substituted, but be careful as they are both very sweet and overwhelmingly flavorful. You want the barley to accent the whiskey, not engulf it.

History

Paddy's Margarita: 2 oz Irish | 1/2 oz lemon juice | 1/2 oz barley malt syrup | 1/2 oz egg white | 1 dash Boker's bitters | dry shake, shake, strain, up, top with a few drops of bitters.

The Count De Grace

3⁄4 oz Mezcal, Del Maguey Chichicapa
3⁄4 oz Amaro Abano, Luxardo
3⁄4 oz Herbal liqueur, Green Chartreuse
Instructions

Stir over ice. Strain into chilled cocktail glass.

Notes

A less expensive Mezcal may certainly be used, but don't skimp!

History

Started out as a loose Negroni variation and ended up similar to the Coup De Grace (http://www.kindredcocktails.com/cocktail/coup-de-grace?f=2). Especially since Amaro Abano has strong cardamom notes.

Dunlop Cocktail (12 Bottle Bar)

2 oz Virgin Islands Rum, Pusser's
1 oz Madeira, Broadbent 10 Year Malmsey
1 ds Bitters, Angostura
1 twst Lemon peel
Instructions

Stir, strain, coupe, twist.

Notes

Now that sherry is relatively well understood and publicized, more contemporary cocktail menus should experiment with Madeira, which comes in a similarly broad range of flavors and textures from the brightly acidic Sercial to the PX-like richness of a Malvasia/Malmsey. Unfortunately there's the matter of price...

History

The Dunlop, as listed in the Savoy, calls simply for rum, fortified wine, and Angostura. David Solmonson at 12 Bottle Bar made his with deep, flavorful Pusser's complemented by rich, coffee/toffee-flavored Malmsey, brightening with a lemon twist.

4 ds Bitters, Fee Brothers Old Fashion

1 wdg Lemon

History

J.P. Caceres, a Washington D.C. based mixologist, developed this twist on the classic Manahattan cocktail by combining the smooth yet subtly spicy flavors of Basil Hayden's bourbon with sweet vermouth, Cynar artichoke liqueur and two kinds of bitters. Complex, with a long finish, this cocktail is the perfect way to enjoy the end of a warm summer night.

1 ds Bitters

Instructions

Shake, strain.

Notes

The original was an exercise in simplicity, a sour made simply of Drambuie and lemon, with optional bitters and orange flower water. The new version is a Rusty Nail Sour with flowery bells and orange whistles.

Bevx commented on 8/20/2013:

Ha! I watched this exact episode just last night!... No Drambuie though, I'm gonna have to try the Cynar version.

"And I suppose that makes it better?"

Bevx commented on 8/20/2013:

Okay so, due to a dwindling Cynar supply, I went a different (if obvious) route and subbed Barenjager for the Drambuie. Good, but maybe a bit sweet this way. The OFW worked with the honey flavors very nicely, though. I may try adding a drop or 2 to my next Bee's Knees or Metamorphosis!

"It's a bad picture, Pam."

OFW + honey is a thing of beauty. I adjusted the ratios here somewhat after making another and also finding it too sweet.

Archer quote, wait, I... I had something for this.
