I'll report back. But damn, the optional bitters...those aren't in my cabinet. Good without em?

I'll have to look that one up and figure out how to juice a pepper.

 

I thought the maraschino and jalapeño would be weird with one another, but I was wrong. It was quite interesting in a really good way.

  • 2 oz bourbon
  • 3⁄4 oz lemon juice
  • 1⁄2 oz maple syrup
  • 1⁄4 oz luxardo maraschino liqueur
  • 1 slice jalapeño (1/4-inch slice, with a few seeds)
  • 1 dash angostura bitters
  • 1 dash orange bitters
  • 1 twist orange peel (Flamed)

That looks really good, although im tempted to substitute the orange juice for cointreau.

I definitely liked it. Aperol spritz will always be my favorite, but I really enjoyed switch it up and using a beer base.

I couldn't reply directly to your comment for some reason.

The recipe is the same as the one in the book.

One of my favorites. Originally adapted from Death & Co. I don't have a juicer, so I blend a bunch of celery then fliter it through a cheese cloth. It works well for now.

  • 2 oz. Gin
  • 1/2 oz. Celery Juice
  • 1/2 oz. Lime Juice
  • 1/2 oz. Honey Syrup

I just blended pineapple, strained it to get the juice, then used that to make simple syrup (2:1 juice to sugar). Because your right, the juice is sweet enough as is.

  • 1 barspoon Pineapple syrup

  • 2 dash Luxardo Maraschino liqueur a bit less than a barspoon if you are low on dasher bottles

  • 2 dash Angostura bitters or other aromatic bitters

  • Garnish: Lemon twist and cherry
