Dry shake, add ice, shake, strain into white wine or cocktail glass, garnish with freshly grated nutmeg.
Place brown sugar cube in mixing glass and add bitters.Muddle. Then add scotch, ice and shake. Strain in collins glass over fresh ice. Top with Club Soda, and garnish.
Shake with ice. Strain into chilled martini glass. Garnish with a sprig of rosemary.
Cook fresh figs with 1 cup water and 1 cup honey. Simmer & remove from heat as soon as boiling begins. Push through strainer and refrigerate.
Renamed from Fig Martini, since it isn't, well, a Martini. It resembles a Bee's Knees, but with fig and lime in lieu of lemon.
Sounds very good, and a reason to finally get some Fee Black Walnut Bitters. Republished as a Fig Bee's Knees, since it is not a Martini-style cocktail. The original poster is welcome to rename it so long as the name conforms to any well-established drinks referenced in the name.
Stir, strain, straight up, cocktail, garnish
Apparently Eastern Standard uses 1/2 oz of a 1:1 mixture of Maraschino and simple.
Riff on a Red Hook by adding Aperol. Prospect Park, like Red Hook, is in Brooklyn, NY. Both drinks start from a Manhattan.
Wow, was this really not on here before? A Boston classic!
I just went to try this tonight and -- THE HUMANITY -- out of Punt e Mes. How I could let this happen, I do not know. Zach is going to strip me of my rank in the Federation of Amari Sluts.
Dan,
I'll let you slide halfway... now if you ran out of Nonnino ;)
If you can't spell Nonino, you aren't allowed to drink it. Go directly to Jägermeister; do not pass Go.
Hmm... I'm imagining a bar where you have to spell your drink in order to get served. As much as I abhor mangled English, I do not go there often. ;)
Great cocktail! I enjoyed one of these last weekend at the Eastern Standard.
When I asked for the recipe, I was told they cut the Luxardo Maraschino Liquor with a 1:1 simple syrup for this cocktail. Sure enough, when I mixed this up at home according to the ratios here, I found the drink was overpowered with the Maraschino flavor!
Thoughts, anyone?
I believe it. Recipe adjusted as per your info. Thanks!
Following a discussion about why you can't make Manhattan variants with Scotch, I made this with Monkey Shoulder and recommend the result. Maybe a little sweeter than with rye, and almost certainly needs a new name. Tartan Hook?
When I got the recipe years ago, they never mentioned cutting it. And I just got a copy of their bar bible, and it is a 1/2 oz Maraschino and no simple syrup. I've made it at work plenty with 1/2 oz Maraschino and it tastes just like I remember it.
Yeah my friend got the recipe for this in the 00s directly from Tommy and there was no simple, it's definitely .5 maraschino.
Shake till cold. Serve up. Smile.
Named after a notorious Kansas City madame.
I made this with Plymouth gin, Pür Likör Blood orange, and Employees Only Grenadine. It was very good. All the various herbal notes played well together. I also tried it with New Deal Aviation gin. The Plymouth was the best, though.
Stir, strain, rocks glass, orange twist
My coffee liqueur is from House Spirits, and I used a lemon twist since that is what I had. I like how the sherry comes through, and it pairs really well with the coffee and spicy herbal flavors from the other ingredients.
This is absolutely awesome!
Combine all ingredients in a mixing glass with ice. Stir for 30 seconds. Strain into a cocktail glass (or serve over fresh ice in a rocks glass). Garnish with an apple fan or a slice of apple.
the name is accurate ... this drink is not for wimps, but easy to make and very autumnal. I used Bittercube Bolivar bitters.
Stir/Strain/Up
A longer stir than normal might be needed because of the amount of chartreuse.
I like this as written and also with more tequila than the liqueurs. Tonight I did 1/4 oz of kirschwasser instead of maraschino, it def. worked.
Shake with ice. Strain into chilled cocktail glass. Twist, rim & drop lemon peel. Raise a toast to Mayan calendar-making skills.
Excellent, though I think it works best with a little more gin and a bit less Suze.
Mix all ingredients in an ice filled shaker and strain into a chilled coupe Garnish with a large flamed orange rind
To make the tea infused simple: Steep two tsps black tea (or Earl Grey) in 4 oz simple demerara syrup. Filter and keep refrigerated. Fee Brothers Aged Whiskey bitters may be substituted for the Boker's
Original recipe
To clean up the line breaks, moved the instructions for the simple to the notes section. Added some capitalization to the name.
Moderated slightly for style and to consolidate ginger snap liqueur into ginger liqueur. I presumed that the pinch of nutmeg was the garnish, and was not in the shaker.
