1886 Cocktail
Recipe found in Clapham Cocktails The Dubonnet Cocktail Book 📕
Recipe calls for lingonberry syrup/jelly, which I subbed for a more local (aka easier to get) Saskatoon Berry. This brought crabapple, almond, blueberry 🫐 flavours. Another option would be cranberry. So even if you are missing one ingredient there are alternatives which will still result in a great cocktail.
As for the bourbon 🥃 I reached for a local whisky made with 8 grains bringing a nice depth of complex flavours.
The first sip was a pleasant toast and jam profile. Further sips had the baking and grain spices, woody oak, leather, bitter berries, blanched walnuts, with a long finish of mulled wine and berries. Through it all the jammy profile never disappears 😋
