Milano Torino
The final addition of club soda makes this a rather low-proof drink that will not affect your senses too much, but definitely warm your heart. It’s simply delicious this Milano Torino cocktail, from The Narrows bar in Brooklyn.
Black Betty
An amaro, another amaro, rum and sherry. Those are the four wonderful ingredients in this cocktail
Duboudreau Cocktail
The “Duboudreau” is our second post, out of four, with cocktails from Jamie Boudreau’s The Canon Cocktail Book.
Howl on the Hill Cocktail
These kind of brown drinks are often based on bourbons or ryes, but the Howl on the Hill is actually a rum cocktail. We used Angostura 1919, but most likely any good quality dark rum will work brilliantly in this cocktail.

We added an orange zest twist in the finalized cocktail, making it look even more fancy, and obviously adding a… Continue reading Eeyore’s Requiem Cocktail

One color is very similar to… Continue reading Hanky Panky Cocktail
Industry Sour
We found a recipe for a cocktail called Industry Sour. It resembles a classic “The Last Word” a lot. However gin is substituted with Fernet-Branca and Maraschino liqueur is substituted with regular simple syrup. The taste is actually not too far away from The Last World, but the Fernet-Branca completely changes the color of the drink.… Continue reading Industry Sour
