  • A smooth, subtle, delicious cocktail. Rate 4.5
  • Quite sweet but a very nice bitter edge too.

Shawn C commented on 1/30/2024:

I am a somewhat puzzled by the recipe with respect to the garnishes. Is this supposed to have 3 dashes of Absinthe stirred into the drink, with another 3 dashes of Absinthe added on top of the drink? Luxardo cherry syrup just sinks to the bottom, which might be the intent, to create a sort of layer in the bottom neck of the glass. I don't have wormwood bitters among my 40+ bitters...I might consider adding some Malort (which is a simple wormwood infusion) to the drink as a sub.

Songs My Mother Taught Me

1 1⁄4 oz Mezcal
3⁄4 oz Cardamaro
3⁄4 oz Amaro Montenegro
1⁄4 oz Fernet Branca
2 ds Bitters, Bittermens Xocolatl Mole
1 twst Orange peel (As garnish)
Instructions

Stir with ice, strain into a cocktail glass, and garnish with an orange twist.

History

I became inspired by the Cardamaro-Amaro Montenegro combination in the Khartoum. The Amaro Montenegro then got me thinking about the combination with mezcal called the M&M, and I mashed up the three ingredients; however, the end result felt flat even after I tinkered by adding absinthe and bitters. In the end, mezcal was not bringing the same structure as Smith & Cross Rum did in the Brick & Mortar classic. I continued tinkering with it at work a day later and took a page from the Scarecrow playbook and added in a 1/4 oz of Fernet Branca which donated that needed depth of flavor. Since the Khartoum was named after the race horse in The Godfather movie, I honed in on actor Marlon Brando and named this the Songs My Mother Taught Me after his autobiography.

This is a remarkably well-balanced and interesting drink with a bit of heat in the finish. Substituted Tattersall aquavit and Old Forester 100-proof rye, as that is what we had on hand.
