1 ds Orange bitters, Fee Brothers Orange
1 ds Bitters, Angostura
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.

Removed "fresh" from the notes - we assume you're using fresh ingredients here at KC.

yarm commented on 9/09/2025:

Hibiscus cordial? Is that like a hibiscus tisane/tea syrup or is that Sorel Liqueur or other? From the recipe, it looks like it needs to be as sweet as a liqueur to match all that citrus acid.

Chelsea Manning

1 oz Bourbon
3⁄4 oz Demerara Rum, Lemon Hart 151
1 t Orange marmalade (heaping)
1 t Demerara syrup (2:1)
1 spl Lime juice
1 ds Bitters, Bittermens Xocolatl Mole
1 ds Bitters, Angostura
Instructions

Shake all but lime juice hard (you want lots of dilution, this is boozy), double strain, rocks, splash lime.

Notes

Lemon Hart 151 + bourbon = surprisingly delicious.

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

Craig E commented on 8/10/2014:

Made this with cucumber-infused gin and simple syrup. Very nice. I like the cherry flavors that come out of these Angostura-heavy drinks. Mistakenly served it up, which tasted great but I guess made it disappear too quickly. 5/5

2 oz Watermelon juice
3⁄4 oz Lime juice
1⁄4 oz Agave syrup (1:1)
3 lf Basil
1 sli Jalapeño (plus ground pepper for rimming glass)
1 pn Salt (for rimming glass)
Instructions

Muddle, shake, double strain into rocks glass half-rimmed with salt and ground jalapeño pepper. Garnish with another basil leaf, smacked.

Notes

Original called for watermelon-basil purée and 3/4 oz agave syrup. This version is simpler and drier.

  • Refreshing. Mostly watermelon.
  • Muddled watermelon chunks with the basil, and used chili-infused simple in lieu of the pepper on the rim.

Interesting, the original no longer calls for puree or basil at all, rather watermelon cubes muddled
