The Strega adds an interesting element to essentially a Black Manhattan. I might add some dry vermouth for sugar balance. Nice overall.


So it turns out that there are a couple versions of this drink floating around the internet, including a Youtube video of Chris Hannah making the drink. I have curated this one to conform with the cited link and added a link to the Rye/Averna/Creole Shrubb version as well. Thanks,  Zachary


Note that the reference used also mentions nothing about ice & this is often recommended as a room temperature cocktail.
