  • Tried going slight on the liqueur per comments. Pleased to find this was a nice feature of the tequila flavors (that is, not overrun by the sweet and fruity St. Germain flavors).

Ginger on the Side

1 oz Lime juice
3⁄4 oz Orange liqueur, Grand Marnier
1⁄4 oz Campari
1⁄4 oz Elderflower liqueur, St. Germain
3 ds Orange bitters, Regans' orange bitters
Instructions

Long shake, strain, coupe

Notes

Grand Marnier can be replaced with other orange liqueur but will be slightly less smooth

History

This is based on the very excellent Ginger Sidecar, but I found it a bit blunt and sweet. After many tweaks I feel like this version is a little more subtle and complex.

  • This riff on the Aviation omits the Creme de Violette entirely and plays around fruit and flowery flavors such as blueberries, balsamic vinegar, strawberry and lavender instead. — ★★★★★

Vaquero

1 1⁄2 oz Rye
1⁄2 oz Mezcal
1⁄2 oz Bénédictine
1⁄2 oz Suze (Or other gentian liqueur)
2 ds Bitters, Bittermens Xocolatl Mole
1 twst Lemon peel (As garnish)
Instructions

Stir with ice, strain into a cocktail coupe, and garnish with a lemon twist.

Notes

For a less sweet drink, decrease the Benedictine to 1/4 oz or perhaps decrease both liqueurs to 3/8 oz. And increase the mezcal to 3/4 oz.

History

In thinking about gentian cocktails that I had recently made at Drink, I noted that gentian liqueur pairs well both with mezcal and with Benedictine. The 3:1 rye whiskey to mezcal base spirit is one that I have grown to appreciate through the years especially in Death & Co. recipes. Assembling all the components, I dubbed this one the Vaquero meaning cowboy. Folks looking for drier drinks should see the note.

Golden Ticket

1 1⁄2 oz Bourbon
1⁄2 oz Amaro Montenegro
1⁄2 oz Honey syrup (1:1)
1⁄2 oz Lemon juice
1 twst Lemon peel (Or orange peel. As garnish)
Instructions

Shake with ice, strain into a cocktail coupe, and garnish with a lemon (or orange) twist.

Notes

I created it with a lemon twist but orange complements the Monte more.

History

While bartending at Drink, I have had good luck with the Gold Rush variation the Rose Gold, but I wanted something for guests who did not enjoy as much bitterness in their cocktails for all those requests for Bourbon Sours. Therefore, to keep the orange notes, I subbed in Amaro Montenegro for the Campari and have had good luck with it in both the Bourbon and Bee's Knee's riff gin versions (not to mention in egg white Sours). Soon guests wanted a name, so I decided to make this at home. After weighing the various "gold" names, I settled on the Golden Ticket.
