Hungarian Like The Wolf

1 oz Zwack liqueur
1 oz Tequila, Lunazul Reposado
3⁄4 oz Pimm's No. 1 Cup
3⁄4 oz Lemon juice
1⁄4 oz Agave syrup
9 dr Bitters, Fee Brothers Old Fashion
Instructions

Put all ingredients into a shaker and shake with ice. Strain over large cube or sphere of ice. Garnish with the peel of an orange.

Notes

The drink has herbal notes from the Zwack and Tequila. The agave and old fashioned bitters are natural compliments to the Tequila. The Pimms gives a bit of a fruit note. Complex yet approachable.

  • Margarita-like. The Zwack gets a bit lost underneath the sweetness, tequila, and agave. Might try to increase the Zwack if I made again.
  • A relaxing, sippable drink. Suggest 0.50-0.65 oz lemon juice, which otherwise can overwhelm other ingredients. I found no need for the ice ball.

Double-Barrel Cocktail

1⁄3 jig Sweet vermouth (Suggest Carpano Antica Formula)
1⁄3 jig Dry vermouth (Suggest Dolin)
1⁄3 jig Whiskey (Rye most likely was used in 1900)
2 ds Bitters, Angostura
2 ds Orange bitters (Suggest Regan's)
Instructions

Mixing-glass half-full fine ice, two dashes Angostura bitters, two dashes orange bitters, one- third jigger French vermouth, one-third jigger Italian vermouth, one-third jigger whiskey. Mix and strain into cocktail-glass.

Notes

One-third of a jigger is only 1 Tablespoon. Cocktails at the end of the 19th century were smaller than today's so instead of using 1/3 of a jigger one can use 1 ounce each of sweet vermouth, dry vermouth and whiskey and increase the bitters to 4 dashes each for a contemporary size cocktail (i.e., 3 ounce)

History

The original recipe does not identify the brand of vermouth or the type of whiskey. Based on the date of publication, rye whiskey was most likely used.

  • Very good. I follwed the directions in comments to change to 1oz and 4 dashes. I might try 1oz rye and .75 each of the vermouth.

Shawn C commented on 7/04/2023:

Light and refreshing, I muddled 1 slice of cucumber since I don't keep cucumber simple syrup around. The rhubarb/cucumber/ginger make a great combination in these proportions. I used Fever Tree Ginger Beer which adds a slight peppery heat to the finish. (Note that the reference URL is long dead and seems to be Indonesian/Malay now. I didn't come a cross a replacement link with the Wayback machine.)

Dark Day

2 oz Rye
3⁄4 oz Grapefruit juice
1 t Wild hibiscus syrup
1 t Bitters, Angostura
1 t Amer Picon
Instructions

Shake, strain, chilled cocktail.

Notes

Since Amer Picon is nearly impossible to get in the states, any reputable substiute will do. I used Amer Boudreaux.

History

Wanted to create something in the veil of the Brown Derby or Blinker. Dark Day is a term used when there is no horse racing.

Eden Terrace Fizz

1 1⁄2 oz English-style rum, Appleton V/X
1⁄2 oz Aperol
1⁄2 oz Sloe gin, Bitter Truth
1 oz Lemon juice
1⁄2 oz Simple syrup (1:1)
1 oz Soda water (to top)
Instructions

Shake all ingredients except soda water in a cocktail shaker, double strain into a highball over ice and top with soda. Garnish with an orange twist.

Notes

Use a lighter style Sloe Gin, Haymans being too heavy.

History

First made for a female customer that wanted something 'fruity' and refreshing, I was going to use white rum but the house pour ran out and I was too lazy to go get a new bottle, so I reached for Appletons. Tweaked for an Appletons competition with Appletons Rum being the dominant flavor and easily accessible ingredients in mind.

Didn't have apricot liqueur, tried peche - not so good. Triple sec/orange worked pretty well, though.
