I love the deep green color in the background leaves on this one.

The $8 version looks better to me!
One of my favorites that includes an amaro is Paper Planes, by Sam Ross (¾ oz each of bourbon, Nonino Quintessentia Amaro, Aperol, and lemon juice; shaken with ice and strained into a coupe).
But that isn’t really an amaro drink, it just has some in it… you might like the Wandering Path, from Jeffrey Morganthaler (perhaps subbing the n/a amaro he uses for an alcoholic one). Here’s another, from Smuggler’s Cove, the Cosa Nostra #2.
Let me know what you think if you try any of these!
I’ve done basically that, except mince the rosemary first and then strain it after it’s cooled. I think the chopping makes a difference!
Thanks! Your little Pellegrino drink sounds delightful.
On the aquafaba front, there’s definitely no bean taste; it’s very neutral! I’m not vegan, so I can say that they are quite similar having tried both.
To use it in a recipe, I use 3 tablespoons to substitute for one egg white. Then, yes, a dry shake and then a shake with ice. And less need to double-strain than with egg!
I’ve always had trouble pairing cocktails with that flavor profile; let us know how it goes with the food!
I did it! I think you have plenty of room to play in this recipe; the quantity and dilution should make it easy to tweak. Let me know if you try it!
Thanks! ❤️
They’re made for IPAs but I thought it would be cute here.
That was a wild read!
My all-time favorite is Jeffrey Morganthaler’s, which uses 2:1 simple syrup and a gently muddled orange twist. Here’s a video: https://youtu.be/LufrnOktZiA
But it’s pretty simple:
- 2 oz bourbon
- ¼ oz 2:1 simple syrup
- 2 dashes Angostura bitters
- 1 large orange twist
In a rocks glass, add the syrup and bitters. Add the orange peel on top with the inside facing down and muddle. Add the bourbon, then stir. Add ice, then stir again.
Awesome, great work!
