Negroni No.2

The Negroni No.2 is an easy spin-off on the classic negroni. Substituting red vermouth for dry vermouth adds an extra bite to this already bitter cocktail. If you are a true Campari fan, this version might be just what you needed. We recommend using Dolin Dry vermouth in place of the sweet red vermouth. The red vermouth is used to balance the drink and offset the bitter aftertaste with a sweet attack. However, like adding salt to enhance flavor, using Dolin Dry will accent the brightness of the Campari and let the natural bitter amaro shine through.

Mid-Morning Fizz

This fizz is an excellent use of Green Chartreuse and one of the few times I have got to use orange blossom water. This cocktail is vibrant, bright, and the chartreuse gives the drink a deeper layer of spice than a more classic fizz. The orange blossom water also adds a very fresh aroma that makes this a fun and uplifting drink.

Rusty Nail

The Rusty Nail dates back to the 1930s, but didnt gain popularity until the 1950s when the Rat Pack was considering this the “go to” drink in popular culture.

At its core, this is an old fashioned construction, 2 oz spirit and a sweetener with bitters. The original recipe in New York’s Club 21 was to combine all the ingredients in an old fashioned glass and add ice. I think our posted recipe creates a more refined version of the drink. This recipe calls for American Single Malt Scotch. I have tried many different versions using aged Scotch and Single Malt Whiskey and this is my personal preference of spirit. Lagavulin is my other prefered choice.

New York Sour

The New York sour is an old classic that seems to never be the same, as the choice of wine float (to float on top) can completely change the drink. Commonly a dry red wine is used to balance the sweetness of the drink. such as a Cab Sav or Cab Franc. The wine float is an easy way to impress your guests.
