Added a splash of dry curacao to sub for the orange slice. Used celtic salt instead of truffle. Was worried the sweet to tart ratio was off with 1oz of simple/agave and 1/2 oz lime juice but it worked. Earthy, ethereal, and evolving with some dilution is the right description!

Black Cherry

1 oz Sweet vermouth
1⁄2 oz Rye
2 t Maraschino Liqueur, Luxardo
1 rinse Espresso (FOAM Only (see picture; actual espresso to taste))
1 ds Bitters, Angostura
Instructions

Stir well all in vessel containing espresso foam (make the shot(s) in something other than a demitasse) then shake on ice and strain in vessel of choice.

Notes

Luxardo cherry garnish optional, perhaps a coffee bean or two - for a real classy touch obtain raw coffee beans which are actually known as cherries. The Maraschino liqueur could be toned down or up. Any bitters can be used to accent and darken the cocktail particularly if limited foam rinse residue is available. Use care and caution, the oil is live and dissolves in the alcohol but resists the water percentages so stir well and strain well. Additionally as much actual espresso can be used with the foam as is desired.

History

A 'rinse' measure is gimmicky and sounds cool to the laity but in reality is little more than a showy way to measure a little liquid. However, this is not the case with espresso foam. Any decent espresso has a thick, oily foam left over, particularly if it is barely stirred after the pull. In this case then a 'rinse' isn't a measure as much as it is a separation method for an essential oil. Thus the 'rinse' is eminently useful and indeed critical rather than just a way to limit the amount of an ingredient. It is suggested to savor the morning (or afternoon!) espresso(s) but do so leaving the foam (yes, to the detriment of those shot(s)) for the evening when the then dried foam can be brought to life for cocktailing. Obviously a just-enjoyed shot or two of espresso foam could be used immediately - morning, noon, or night!

Anchor Scar

2 oz Blanco tequila
3⁄4 oz PInk grapefruit juice
1⁄2 oz Amaro Meletti
1⁄2 oz Lime juice
1⁄2 oz Orgeat (Sunflower *see notes)
2 ds Grapefruit bitters
1 rinse Allspice Dram, St Elizabeth
Instructions

Shake all ingredients except Allspice and double strain in cocktail glass rinsed with Allspice Dram. I use 2 sprays with an atomic bottle.

Notes

Sunflower Orgeat: 4 cups roasted, unsalted sunflower seeds, 1 cup sugar. Combin the sugar and 2.5 cups sugar in a saucepan over med heat. Allow mixture to boil for 3 minutes then add sunflower seeds. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 3-5 more minutes, then gradually increase temp to med-high. When the mix is just about to boil, remove from heat and cover pan. Let rest for at least 6 hours.
Strain mix with a fine mesh and cheese cloth.

Substituted Cardamaro for the bianco and Forty Creek Barrel Select for Four Roses. Wow. Wow! Maybe a spicy rye would be better than the Forty Creek, which is a bit softer, but you get its nuttiness intensified and rounded out by many tasty flavors.

Tespo commented on 2/17/2013:

Sara-nice job; like the flavors. I ended up adding a bar spoon of rich simple syrup which helped soften the drink. I also tried it with 1 3/4 bourbon and 1 grapefruit which was nice. Also, only 1 dash of Whiskey Barrel for me; it's pretty potent stuff. Thanks for adding it.

Thanks! I'm going to try your suggestions tonight!!
