Dark Phoenix

1 1⁄2 oz Fernet Branca
3⁄4 oz Allspice Dram, St. Elizabeth
3 ds Bitters, Fee Brothers Whiskey Barrel Aged
4 oz Root beer, Virgil's
Instructions

Shake, strain into a Collins over crushed ice. Top with root beer, and gently stir in.

Notes

My allspice dram is homemade, so I use 1 1/4 oz. As a bonus cocktail, this would be really awesome over vanilla ice cream. It makes me think of how root beer might have tasted back in the sassafrass days.

  • 7/22/20: Had to sub Ango bitters (1 dash). Not bad, though I would scale back the allspice dram and maybe add some mint and/or lemon peel.

Maharaja's Revenge

2 oz Rum, Old Monk
1 oz Apricot liqueur
3⁄4 oz Lime juice
Instructions

Shake with ice and strain into a cocktail glass.

Notes

Old Monk is an Indian rum with a unique, smoky flavor, so no substitutes.

Consider upping lime to 1oz for more tang.

Looks awesome, though Old Monk is increasingly hard to find around Boston (at least it is at my usual packies). I wonder how mezcal would do in this, I bet mezcal as base spirit would be tasty with some tweaks.

bza commented on 1/13/2013:

Old Monk is almost always at Martignetti's and Liquor World in Porter.

I think mezcal would work, but it doesn't have the same vanilla notes that Old Monk has, so it would probably need another ingredient to mellow out the bite.

  • a bit of an odd convergence of flavors. Maybe real apple juice is the missing bit? or true coconut syrup as opposed to homemade creme of coconut.
  • Really refreshing and the coconut syrup adds a nice sweetness to it. All of the ingredients balance very well. Perfect by the pool. — ★★★★

Vin d'Orange

2⁄3 c Sugar (Granulated)
5 c White wine
1 c Vodka
3 Orange (Seville or bitter)
1 Lemon
1⁄2 Vanilla Bean (split lenthwise)
Instructions

In a large glass jar, combine the sugar, white wine and vodka and stir until the sugar mostly dissolves.

Slice the oranges and lemon into quarters and add them to the jar.

Scrape the seeds from the vanilla bean and add them to the jar, then drop in the pod.

Cover jar, and let mixture stand undisturbed for 1 month in a cool, dark place. The vin d' orange will take on a slightly hazy, pale orange hue. After a month, remove and discard the fruit and vanilla bean.

Pour the mixture through a mesh strainer lined with a double layer of cheesecloth or a coffee filter, then funnel it back into clean bottles. Seal tightly with a cork and refridgerate.

Notes

Use the cheapest white wine, since it's getting mixed with oranges and sugar.

When picking out oranges, shop for ones that are heavy for their size since heavier citrus tends to yields more juice and is less likely to be dried out. Also, if you can't find Seville oranges at your local grocer, order them online from a specialty produce site like melissas.com

History

This is an aperitif popular in the south of France.

Moderated slightly - we're assuming "top" means around 3 ounces in a single rocks glass.
