📅 This Day in History – Sept 21, 1780
Benedict Arnold betrays the American cause.
So here’s his cocktail:
🥃 General Regret

1 oz American Apple Brandy

¾ oz Passion Fruit Syrup

½ oz Lemon Juice

¼ oz Falernum

½ oz London Dry Gin (floated)

Dash Angostura bitters

Sweet and spiced like the colonies. Sharp with citrus.
Then floats the cold, dry betrayal.
