SHUDDERS IN A WHISPER

¾ oz lime juice
½ oz passion fruit syrup
½ oz pear liqueur
¼ oz Drambuie
2 oz seltzer
2 oz Column Still Aged Rum ❹
2 dashes Peychauds bitters
1 dash Angostura bitters

Flash blend // Open pour // Garnish: mint sprig, edible orchid

It's really getting cold here, so my solution is to flash blend drinks and pretend I'm somewhere tropical 😎 This one comes from the Smuggler's Cove book, page 118. I made it because I was trying to use pear liqueur, and it really blends nicely with the Drambuie, with the rum playing second fiddle.

And how about that glass bamboo straw?? I just got a new set from Surfside Sips, and they're next-level quality. I can't recommend them enough, and you'd be supporting a small self-owned business! Non-spon, I'm just a happy customer like you will be: https://www.surfsidesips.com/

JALISCO SHAKE DOWN

¾ oz lime juice
¾ oz pineapple juice
½ oz passion fruit syrup
½ oz Aperol
1½ oz Tequila reposado
float Peychauds bitters

Garnish: pineapple frond
Method: Combine all ingredients except bitters in a shaker with ice and shake. Strain over a large rock of clear ice, float the bitters, and garnish.

Found on IG anatomyofadrink who credits IG ed_tales. The build reminded me of a Jungle Bird, but the taste is not really so similar. Great summer tequila cocktail for that person you know who loves bitter in their drinks.

CHOCO-NANA OLD FASHIONED

4 dashes walnut bitters
2 dashes Peychauds bitters
¼ oz creme de cacao
¼ oz banana liqueur
2 oz Pot Still Lightly Aged Rum ❶

Garnish: orange twist
Method: Combine all ingredients in a mixing glass, add ice, and stir. Strain over a large rock of clear ice, express an orange peel, and garnish with it.

I whipped this up on a whim after a long summer weekend filled with activity. A storm arrived in the evening and I wanted something to go with the chill in the air. I used Doctor Bird as my base, whose funkiness gets elevated by the banana/cacao liqueur. Overall quite sweet tbh; maybe next time I'd reduce to barspoons of liqueur instead of quarter shots, or use an OP as the base spirit.

OJEN COCKTAIL

3 dashes Peychauds bitters
¼ oz (optional) orgeat
2 oz Ojen anise liqueur

Garnish: Peychauds float
Method: Fill a chilled double old fashioned glass halfway with crushed ice, add the anise liqueur, optional orgeat, the initial dashes of Peychauds, and swizzle. Add more crushed ice and swizzle again. Finally, top with additional crushed ice until it is higher than the glass, and float the Peychauds bitters on top.

This one was inspired by @[email protected] who recently posted a top-down photo of a negroni. The spec actually calls for crushed ice, but the large rock plus Peychauds float is still a really pretty effect IMO. It definitely needs crushed ice and a good swizzle to taste like the spec intends though. The spec comes from the book Cure: New Orleans drinks and how to mix 'em, page 51.

SAZERAC

rinse glass with absinthe
3 dashes Peychauds bitters
¼ oz demerara syrup
2 oz Sazerac rye

Garnish: lemon peel
Method: Use an atomizer to rinse your serving glass with absinthe. Combine the remaining ingredients in a stirring glass with ice and stir. Strain into the glass, express lemon peel, and use as garnish.

Another boozy stir for a cold winter night. This version of the legendary cocktail comes from the book Cure: New Orleans drinks and how to mix 'em, page 29. I finally found an affordable bottle of Sazerac in Germany and thought the titular cocktail was the logical test pilot. For the photo I also tested a new lighting setup. Not 100% happy with it, but you gotta start somewhere.
