@ellestad I absolutely love that style of cocktail glass!
@DrinkBoy oh man I keep forgetting this cocktail, but it was a favourite when I used to work behind the bar. Thanks for the reminder!
@DrinkBoy I like the tweaks in this version (including using Punt e Mes for the sweet vermouth and goosing the orange juice with lemon) https://tartinestotikis.wordpress.com/2014/08/22/a-study-in-demonology-back-at-satans-whiskers/
A study in demonology – back at Satan’s Whiskers

Tartines to Tikis
@milligna @DrinkBoy Using acid adjusted orange juice may yield preferable results. Debatable. I think it still needs work.

Reportedly created during Prohibition at the swank Los Angeles "Embassy Club" (opened 1929), the Satan’s Whiskers languished in more modern times, and was dusted off by Paul Harrington for the late 1990’s website that he was providing classic recipes for. It’s use of orange bitters made it difficult to re-create until those became more available.

Using "Orange Curaçao" instead of Grand Marnier turns this into a "curled" version.

Satan's Whiskers

@DrinkBoy indeed it is.

They’re never quite as good as at Pegu though. 😢

@Meat_Bucket

An absolutely great cocktail (if I do say so myself)

Here is a recipe: https://punchdrink.com/recipes/earl-grey-marteani/

Audrey Saunders’ renowned non-Martini MarTEAni helped pave the way for the gin Martini cocktail recipe's return.
