luvdunhill Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 2:1:1 margarita with Espolon Reposado, Napoleon Mandarine and Lime Juice. Better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voltron Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 Absinthe-minded Professor 1 oz. rye whiskey (1.5oz) 1/2 oz. Obsello absinthe 1/2 oz. Aperol 1/2 oz. fresh lemon juice 1/2 oz. agave nectar (.25oz) Half-slice orange Ice cubes Tools: Boston shaker, strainer Glass: cocktail Muddle the orange slice in a mixing glass. Add remaining ingredients, shake well and strain into a chilled class. I didn't have an orange to muddle so I added a dash of OJ. Sweet and absinthe-y is a bit odd. Claire likes it though, so I'm going to makes proper Sazerac for myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvdunhill Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 I'm sure this is another cocktail, but it turned out to taste nice, but kinda smells funny: 1.5 oz vintage bourbon 0.25 oz mandarine peychauds lump of sugar lemon rind old-fashioned prep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voltron Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 I had some nicely smoked wildebeest ass, but come to think of it that was food at all. Enjoyed my sazerac immensely. Another? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luvdunhill Posted October 12, 2011 Report Share Posted October 12, 2011 So, shockingly good........ Alaska Cocktail (Stork) 2 oz gin 3/4 oz yellow chartreuse Stir and serve in a 3 oz. cocktail glass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvdunhill Posted October 12, 2011 Report Share Posted October 12, 2011 Also, does Dubbonet in a recipe imply French or Italian vermouth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voltron Posted October 12, 2011 Report Share Posted October 12, 2011 It implies Dubonnet, which is a fortified red wine with herbs and quinine (although there is now a Dubonnet blanc also). It is not a vermouth, but I guess I would go with something like Punt y Mes if I didn't have Dubonnet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shellylh Posted October 12, 2011 Report Share Posted October 12, 2011 I decided (after trying it in several drinks) that I don't like Dubonnet and poured the rest of mine down the sink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emelius Posted October 12, 2011 Report Share Posted October 12, 2011 Mikkeller Coffee IPA....the Koppi Tomahawk x Odoo Shakiso this time...not the Tomahawk x Guji Natural... I think I prefer the Guji....but the first sip of the Odoo was preferable... Smuttynose Homunculus...good, but better on tap... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voltron Posted October 12, 2011 Report Share Posted October 12, 2011 I tried the Stork Alaska Cocktail and thought it tasted a lot like gin and chartreuse. Not bad at all, but nothing more than the sum of it's parts for me. I then made a nice strong Remember the Maine. Very nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tasty. Damn Al, the description on the back of that bottle makes my mouth water. Was it really as roasty and bitter as the label stated? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
