  • Very balanced. Hard to pick a dominant taste. Lime and vermouth and some tang from elderflower, but less than you'd think from an oz. Prob a 4.5, but different enough to not be a variant, so it's a 5. Next one, a few weeks later: Def a 5.
  • Great cocktail! Love it! — ★★★★★
  • 1.25 oz tequila .75 lime juice .5 oz st germaine .5 mezcal .5 punt e mes — ★★★
  • So much elderflower liquor!
  • Mezcalicious
  • The mezcal smoke (I used Vida) is misfitting, to my palate. Perhaps cutting it way back (even to just a rinse) would be more to my taste.
  • Very good, really like this.

mahastew commented on 11/30/2011:

I can't really get past the fact that ANY drink that has more than .25 oz of maraschino is a MARASCHINO drink, and not a Torani Amer drink, etc. While this is a tasty tipple, I have to say it's a fail as far as highlighting the flavor of Torani Amer (or Amer Picon). Anyway, I love maraschino, so it's all good.

Zachary Pearson commented on 11/30/2011:

I don't think that Torani Amer and Amer Picon are alike at all (and I have both). I struggle with the whole gin + amaro pairing, but this is as good of a swing as I've seen outside the Negroni.

nbcouch commented on 4/09/2014:

made this with CioCiaro in place of the Amer Picon, and it is delicious - anything with CioCiaro is delicious!

bkemp1984 commented on 3/17/2024:

Big fan....have made with a few different gins, only ever with PF dry, and for the amer Golden Moon's Amer dit Picon and New Liberty's American Picon. The former requires a bit of sugar because it's way less sugary than Amer Picon and the latter benefited from a bit less than 3/4 oz and a splash extra of curacao.

Picon Punch

2 oz Amer Picon
1 t Grenadine
4 oz Soda water
1 twst Lemon peel (as garnish)
1⁄2 oz Brandy (optional float)
Instructions

Rinse tumbler with grenadine. Add Amer and ice, stir, add soda and stir gently. Float brandy if desired. Garnish.
