drinkingandthinking commented on 5/01/2019:

Only a handful of cocktails I give 2 stars to, and I think it has something to do about Benedictine and lemon that just doesn't work for me. It's just a really weird taste with the sour first followed by strong herbal. Not pleasant, but maybe it's just me...

Mixin In Ansley commented on 11/27/2023:

Like a gold cup at Mory’s in New Haven. Used Green Spot and Grand Marnier

Red Maple

1 1⁄2 oz Jamaican rum, Smith & Cross
3⁄4 oz Grapefruit juice
3⁄4 oz Maple syrup (maybe less – to taste)
2 ds Peychaud's Bitters
Instructions

Shake well with ice, strain into chilled cocktail glass.

Notes

1/2 oz of maple syrup was plenty to my taste, may want even less.

MOJO1229 commented on 7/06/2016:

<br />The instructions need to be clarified on two matters: (1) The instructions say to put all of the ingredients, save for the agave syrup, into a glass mixer and then vigorously shake it. I think if the ingredients are to be vigorously shaken, then they should be put into a metal shaker, not a mixing glass. This will prevent the escape of the minions from Hell! (2) More importantly, what is to be done with the agave syrup that was put into a separate container? The only thing I could come up with is that the agave syrup is to be carefully floated atop of the other ingredients after they have been vigorously shaken. Can anyone clarify what is to be done with the agave syrup? I think the instructions should be rewritten to clarify both issues, but mostly to clarify issue number two, regarding the agave syrup. And I agree that switching the amounts of absinthe and tequila makes a better drink.

The Road to Tipperary:

1 oz Berry (Mixed)
2 oz Irish whiskey, Powers
1⁄2 oz Rich demerara syrup 2:1
2 ds Peychaud's Bitters
2 ds Bitters, Fee Brothers
2 oz Stout, Guinness stout (as float)
Instructions

Muddle berries in a pint glass and add all ingredients except Guinness.
Shake with 2 kold draft cubes and strain into the pilsner glass.
Add crushed ice, swizzle a bit add more crushed ice and top with Guinness.

Notes

Source recipe is vague about type of berries, but presumably a mix of blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, and/or blackberries would be appropriate

  • Interesting concoction. Used Buffalo Trace bourbon. Glad I tried it but seemed like it was missing something. Perhaps a little more lemon juice?

christina in tacoma commented on 4/20/2012:

My favorite local bar has a version of this on their happy hour menu called the Hilltop New Yorker- no egg white or fruity garnish but they add rhubarb bitters. It is such a good, simple cocktail, and the rhubarb bitters make all the difference.

Navy Grog

3⁄4 oz Lime juice
3⁄4 oz Grapefruit juice (white)
3⁄4 oz Soda water
1⁄2 oz Honey (or 1 ounce honey mix)
1 oz Light rum
1 oz Dark rum
1 oz Demerara Rum
Instructions

Shake and strain into a double old-fashioned glass with an ice cone encased straw.

Notes

The dark rum should be Jamaican: Myer's, Coruba, or Appleton 12. Straining onto the rocks would be a good alternative to an ice cone. An ice cone is made by packing shaved ice into a pilsner glass, poking a chopstick through for the hole, and freezing. I add the soda water after shaking.

  • Made the Smugglers Cove recipe. Used S&C, Angostura 7, and Planteray Dark. Definitely think it would be better with Coruba instead of Planteray.
  • Very tasty although the Smith and Cross dominates
  • Simple Rum Punch, tons of flavor. Be creative with the rums and stay away from bland generic swill. Take a risk and be rewarded. — ★★★★★
