  • 4.5. Nothing wrong with the Ango, but play with the bitters anyway? Abbotts? Peychaud's (because of the Sazerac aspect)?

<br />Which of the many Fee Bros bitters?
How much Strega in place of the Drambuie?


There's no telling - this drink is a riff on the cited Autumn Leaves in the way that a Gimlet is a riff on a Martini. Taking a guess, either the regular, the Barrel Aged or something fruity like cherry. Thanks,  Zachary

Dan commented on 1/12/2012:

This sounds really good. I like the idea of the massive blast of molasses from the Cruzan Blackstrap with the menthol of the Fernet Branca. I definitely want to try this soon, perhaps starting with a scant portion of honey.


This sounds interesting - rum-lime-Fernet makes me think of the rum-lime-Chartreuse combination that I love so much. I'm trying to think about the Luxardo in there - how does it work other than the sweetness?

Well balanced sweet/sour, modest alcohol heat, and fruit/bitter. I muddled the sliced strawberries before shake, and used 10 drops of rhubarb bitters. Great color, good nose. I sense the rhubarb bitter is coming through and augmenting the rest.

  • I cut the lime to 3/4 oz. and the simple syrup to about 1/2 oz., nice sweet-tart balance while still tasting the gin.
  • close but lacked the depth needed to keep it interesting. The Greenall's gin faded behind the tart sweetness of the lime juice and pomegranate molasses. A more flavorful gin would likely do better.

Looks a bit brown and mucky but tastes lovely!


A sweet and tart cocktail. The pomegranate molasses is a nice new flavor for me, and the gin used makes a difference. I used a botanical Freeland Spirits blue Gin. It IS brown, but it's a nice autumn color, real pretty with some pomegranate seeds and a sprig of mint.

I removed 1 3/4oz of Yellow Chartreuse, which doesn't appear in the original cocktail and I suspect was a typo. If this was intended, then you might indicate it in the Your Comments section of your Cocktail Book entry.
