Rafa, you might enjoy my wife's signature cocktail, the Dana Special.


Sounds delicious, if a little sweet. I'll give it a try.



Novara

1 1⁄2 oz Gin, Plymouth
1⁄2 oz Campari
1⁄2 oz Passion fruit syrup
1⁄2 oz Lemon juice
Instructions

Shake, strain, up.

Notes

Boudreau: "The final product looks, smells and tastes like ruby red grapefruit juice. It really is quite remarkable. The Jasmine is another drink which sort of does this, but not to the extent that the Novara does."

  • I used Chinola as the passionfruit liqueur and found that the drink was not sweet enough for my taste. I think if I used Chinola again I would add either honey syrup or simple syrup. 1:1 I would probably start with 1/4 oz.

Renegade

Instructions

Stir over ice until well chilled, pour in chilled cocktail/coupe. Garnish with orange twist

Notes

Specified Buffalo Trace, but I think it's only necessary to not use a high proof bourbon, I originally used Wild Turkey 101 and it over-powered the drink.

  • Take it easy on the lime, it can easily dominate. Also, don't neglect your stirring.
