Winner of the Reddit Original Cocktail Competition October 2022: tequila and pomegranate.
Very nice, savory/ancho, agave with moderate heat and only mild sweetness. Made per recipe w/ Patron Silver and Hacienda de Chihuahua Reposado Sotol, used my own pomegranate grenadine. I need to make some cocktail onions to go with this since I threw out my old bottle of unpalatably hard store bought cocktail onions--I added a pinch of salt to compensate in the drink which likely augments its savory character.
Stir with ice, strain into a glass, and garnish with lemon oil from a twist.
After a recent bar shift, I was inspired to tinker with banana liqueur that I last used a few days prior in the Origami Ape with the recipe structure of the 1919 Cocktail. For a name, I dubbed this one the King Louie after the orangutan who appears in Disney's 1967 movie The Jungle Book; King Louie was not in Rudyard Kipling's book but was cast for, voiced by, and named after New Orleans singer Louis Prima. It also fit since the recipe had a New Orleans feel to it.

Recently, I had a guest at work who wanted a Rusty Nail, and I began thinking about Drambuie. I then recalled the delightful Brambuie-Fernet combination in the Bittered Old Coot and Bonita Applebum, and I took things in a Cognac and pineapple rum direction later that evening. For a name, the song "Big Spender" by Peggy Lee was on the sound system, and I went with it.
