Day 88: Imperial March

  • 1 1/2 oz navy strength gin
  • 1 oz cream sherry
  • 3/4 oz cocchi americano
  • 1 tsp maraschino liqueur
  • 1 dash orange bitters

Here’s another from the Death & Co book. I think someone brought a bottle of navy-strength gin to our last party, and this had a cool enough name that I wanted to try it.

This is a hard one for me to describe. It’s pretty boozy, thought the sherry makes it sweet enough for me to enjoy.

Day 40: Samoan Fog Cutter

  • 2 oz lemon juice
  • 1 1/2 oz light rum
  • 1 oz orange juice
  • 1/2 oz Orgeat
  • 1/2 oz brandy
  • 1/2 oz gin
  • 1/2 oz cream sherry (float)

Another beauty from the Beachbum Berry book. The actual recipe for this calls for it be blended, but I was feeling lazy. This is super tart and would make a great “sipping by the pool in summer” drink. I also finally got a chance to use my Horror in Clay fogcutter mug, designed by a friend of a friend. Clearly I need some longer straws.
