PANORAMA

2 dashes chocolate bitters
¼ oz maple syrup
½ oz Amaro Averna
¾ oz mezcal espadín
¾ oz Black Blended Rum ❺
¾ oz overproof Pot Still Lightly Aged Rum ❶

Garnish: orange peel
Method: Build in glass, stirring with the rock. Garnish with an orange twist.

Stirring my way through the cold weather. I found it hard to pick out the base spirits. Rather, they intensified the bitters and amaro bringing out strong spicy flavors balanced out nicely by the syrup. I found this one on IG chips_classic_cocktails.

Nice pic!
I'm somehow stuck with photography, I have limited skills and space.
I use a pentax with 50mm f1.4 lens to shot portraits of my drinks into a small photo box (a 40cm cube with led and black background).
I have a long way to go 😁

@boozyANDsour thanks for the kind words! I have also been feeling a bit stuck, especially in winter when I photograph in my kitchen at night. Even if the pic turns out good, I get bored with my countertop being in every photo :) In the warmer months I use my back porch during daytime and can quickly rearrange things to change up the look.

TBH all I have is my iPhone. I don't have a real camera. With good light it does most of the hard work for me. I like the idea of a photo box. Could you take slightly wider shots and add some props next to the drink to change the motif?

Sometime I squeeze in the frame the bottle of the spirit I use, if it's small enough, but nothing more. 😁
