Cute name, smart idea for a contest like that. Where'd you get Medford? It looks like he's from Brighton.

Eric's Facebook profile, though I should probably clarify with him. (NB: Eric's a Facebook pal of long standing, I don't just check the profiles of home bar stars as a matter of course.) Re: the cocktail, I like how in addition to being a very clever take on an Arnold Palmer this drink also features a deconstructed Swedish Punsch (lemon/arrack/tea).

Pittsburgh Coffee

2 sh Espresso
1 1⁄2 oz Drambuie
1 1⁄2 oz Fernet Branca
Instructions

Mix and enjoy in vessel of choice.

Notes

Letting the doubleshot of espresso cool for a few minutes might be ideal. The other two ingredients will get the oils in it flowing again once added. Cooling takes the edge of heat off and prevents any evap of alcohol.

Lemon Drop Fizz

1 oz Gin
1 oz Aromatized wine, Cocchi Americano
3 oz Lemon sorbet
1⁄2 oz Elderflower liqueur, St. Germain
1⁄4 oz Lemon juice
2 oz Prosecco
Instructions

Shake, strain into a tall glass over bubbly.

Notes

I've been experimenting with adding sorbets to classic recipes (Margaritas, Gimlets, Gin Fizzes) and found that they make for extremely accessible and refreshing summer coolers, with varied, engaging textures.

Hart of Darkness

1 1⁄2 oz Demerara Rum, Lemon Hart 151
1⁄2 oz Lime juice
1⁄4 oz Lemon juice
1⁄2 oz Passion fruit syrup
1⁄2 oz Honey syrup
1⁄4 oz Soda water
8 oz Crushed ice
Instructions

Blend at high speed for five seconds, pour un-strained into a tall glass, top with ice.

Notes

The Bum: "Lemon Hart’s 151 Demerara is our favorite rum. There’s just one problem: you can’t drink much of it without blacking out and waking up the next day in a country where no one can speak your language, but everyone seems very disappointed in you for some reason. So in 2005 we fashioned this drink to keep us from sipping the stuff neat."

  • Works even better with Czech Fernet.
  • Was ok, but seemed like it was missing something.
  • Nice, well-balanced sipping cocktail. It really takes the harshness out of the fernet. — ★★★★
  • Nice balance of earthy and cool.

Simple and great. Love the fernet / Benedictine combo and the rest balances nicely. Thanks!
