Bonus Booze

[madbaker]

I've generated a few extra Resolution Recipes that I will post in the next few weeks. Rather than get even further ahead, here is a bonus mid-week Resolution Recipe: the Mott and Mulberry cocktail.

1 ounce rye
1 ounce Amaro
3/4 ounce apple cider or tart apple juice (a dry hard cider works too. He said innocently.)
1/2 ounce lemon juice
1/2 ounce simple syrup

Add all ingredients into a shaker. Add ice and shake until chilled. Strain into a rocks glass over ice. Garnish with thinly sliced apple wedges, if desired. (I did not so desire.)

What worked: $deity, this was delicious and easy to drink.

What didn't: $deity, this was delicious and easy to drink.

Will I make it again? Oh yes, this is going into the cocktail recipe book.

Because the name puzzled me: it is an intersection on the border of Little Italy and Chinatown in New Yawk City. I'm not sure why this is relevant: the drink is a riff on a Whiskey Sour, not a Manhattan. And I don't think of apples and lemon juice as particularly Chinatown-style ingredients. But hey, inventor's prerogative.
