"Oliver's Twist Created by Gary Regan for the Gourmet Magazine food-pairing challenge, 2004. Named for Garrett Oliver, brewmaster for the Brooklyn Brewery, and one of the other competitors.."

Therapeutic Agent

1 1⁄2 oz Cognac
3⁄4 oz Whiskey
1 oz Bianco Vermouth
1⁄4 oz Fernet Branca (fat)
Instructions

Stir with ice. Serve up with a brandied cherry. Smile.

Notes

Make it a plump 1/4 oz of Fernet. A half ounce is too much and a quarter ounce leaves it lacking.

  • Smooth and interesting. Used Elijah Craig for whisky. Made my branca a real fat one :)
  • Used dry vermouth, which was bitter, but still good. Bitter, but enjoyable and slow to drink, seemed similar to a Toronto.

Moderated from 1 to 1/4 oz Fernet as per the notes. I'm assuming that 1 oz was a typo.

Veronica Rose

1⁄2 oz Syrup of roses (see below)
2 ds Orange bitters
2 oz Sparkling white wine

Combine all ingredients, except the sparkling wine, and stir with ice to combine. Strain into a flute, top with chilled sparkling wine and garnish with lemon twist.

Notes

For the Rose Syrup: Steep 1/4 cup of dried rose petals in 1 cup of boiling water and let steep for 30 minutes. Strain out the rose petals and lightly squeeze to extract the excess water. Add 1/4 tsp. of rose water and a pinch of gum arabic (the arabic is optional), add more hot water to return the volume to 1 cup, add 1 cup of sugar and stir until dissolved. Keep refrigerated for up to 2 weeks.

Just a minor comment to reflect my nit picking tendency. My French teacher would have said "Mon Dieu!" about the title. Properly speaking, it should be "L'Antoinette." At the very least, given that "Antoinette" is feminine, it should be "La" instead of "Le." OK. Got that off my chest. I'll mix one up and try it! Sounds good!

  • An absolutely delicious bitter cocktail, even if it is fairly low ABV
  • Love this - I only had dried rosemary, so I added 1/2 oz Zirbenz Stone Pine liqueur for extra (holiday) spirit.
