Bert Cooper

1 1⁄4 oz Gin, Tanqueray
1⁄4 oz Meyer lemon juice
1⁄4 oz Maraschino Liqueur, Luxardo
3 oz Champagne
1⁄4 oz Crème Yvette (float)
2 twst Meyer lemon zest (one shaken, one as garnish)
Instructions

Shake gin, Meyer lemon juice, Meyer lemon zest, and Maraschino with ice; strain into a chilled Champagne flute with a Meyer lemon spiral at the bottom. Pour Champagne. Float Crème Yvette.

Notes

Green Chartreuse makes a good float too, if you'd like it to be more of a Royal Word than a high-flying Aviation. Regular old lemon would probably work well for those who don't like the thyme-y herbaceousness of Meyer zest. More austere and funky than a French 75; good for those who want something festive and effervescent but a bit more challenging.

I'm a big fan of the Aviation, and this is an interesting spin on it. Recommending doubling maraschino to 1/2 oz (that's how I take my Aviation as well).

Couldn't get the Yvette to float, it tends to plummet to the bottom. Still works, though.

Yeah, I say "float" but most times I can't get these heavy liqueurs to stay above the rest of the drink (pouring them slowly down a barspoon helps). It's more of a "sink" I guess. Thanks for trying it!

Against All Odds Cocktail

1 1⁄2 oz Irish whiskey, Bushmill's
1 1⁄2 oz Chardonnay (Channing Daughters Scuttlehole)
1⁄2 oz Apricot liqueur, Rothman & Winter Orchard Apricot
1⁄4 oz Orange liqueur, Clément Créole Shrubb
1 rinse Mezcal, Ilegal Reposado
1 Pansy flower (as garnish)
Instructions

Stir, strain into Mezcal-rinsed coupe, garnish.

Notes

Named for the seemingly incompatible list of ingredients, as well as, one can only hope, Phil Collins' solo masterpiece, which is more commercial than his work with Genesis and therefore more satisfying in a narrower way.

  • Like this quite a bit with 1/2 oz vermouth instead of 3/4
  • Next time I'd do a fat 3/4 oz vermouth and a skinny 1/4 oz maraschino.

  • Made the tequila/mole version. Used coffee infused antica formula vermouth and cacao infused blanco tequila.
  • +1 for the tequila/mole version. A splash of mezcal is a nice addition to this one
  • Made the tequila/mole variation. My Kahlua substitute at this quantity gets a little too syrupy sweet--would like to try with better coffee liqueur. — ★★★★

A very good variant: blanco tequila and mole bitters, for a Mexican coffee effect, is delicious.

What a funky drink! I made one the other day and found it to be very good! I messed around with it a bit and I definitely will be making it for people soon!

  • Need to cut gin to 1.5 oz and add 1/2 oz lime juice.
  • Could use bitters (peach?) or a squeeze of lemon.

Cutting the gin to 1.5 oz. and adding 1/2 oz of lime juice balances this drink out and makes it more palatable.

via cocktailvirgin:  the Hawthorne bar bible has this at 3/4 Cocchi and 1/4 Chartreuse. This pushes it towards a more balanced Martini variant & it may not need the acid others have added with larger quantities of Chartreuse.

  • Simple, delicious, decadent. Wonderful taste. Intense with the egg.
  • Delicious. I like Cynar 70 already and the difference in mouth feel from the egg turns it into a caramel frappe with a complex, bitter finish.
  • Made with Cynar 70 and would recommend. Beautiful cappuccino color. Taste is rich and deep but more complex and bitter in taste. Flips aren't usually my thing but I'll make an exception for this one.
  • Sweet and creamy up front, in looks and flavor rather like an iced caramel latte, but with that characteristic Cynar afterbite.

How was this not in the archive yet? A genius drink.

Generally attributed to Ben Sandrof at Drink (another bartender claims to have created it there but many feel that wasn't as believable).

Couldn't read the back story on that dead link. Here's our recipe that was made for us in 2008 at another restaurant by a bartender friendly with the Drink team:

  • I didn't find the anise flavors strong enough to balance the others as written. Perhaps my fennel seeds were too old. I ended up adding some Peychauds and then a ds of Absinthe to get it there. With the extra juice a 4.

  • really good with mezcal...feels like it needs something more...tried absinthe, good but not quite
  • Tried this with Amaro Sfumato Rabarbaro in place of the Zucca. Pleasant enough. Sweet.
  • Did it with a spicy homemade crème de cacao (from the cocktaildudes). Excellent! — ★★★★★
