BFerguson Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 a "Old Manhatten".2oz WTRB1oz Sweet vermouth1oz Pierre Ferrand Dry Curacaobittersdrizzle of Luxardo sweet vermouth, with a couple of cherries on the top.Over crushed ice.Needle something sweeter today grilling. The higher proof RB stood up well, and the addition of the orange note played well with the rest, like the muddled orange of the old fashioned. A good slow sipper.B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trey Manthey Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 Tried a 2:1 Buffalo Trace / Cardamaro stir down with a few dashes of Bitter Truth Aromatic. Easy sipping, rich, and let's the Cardamaro flavors shine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trey Manthey Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 Tried this recipe:http://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2012/12/new-york-shrub-peels-cocktail-rye-whiskey-balsamic-recipe.htmlI might cut back on the lemon juice a tad next time, but this makes an excellent aperitif. Not too sweet, not too bitter, and not too sour. I think I'd like to play around with the shrub format a little more... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigtoys Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 just saw this on Girl and the Goat Facebook page. They call it a Chicago Derby. They soak mint leaves in the bourbon for 11 hours. Looks like they've chosen a good bourbon, too. Hope to have one soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
