    The 'favorite mixed drink' thread.

    Just like the 'favorite beer thread', post your favorite mixed drink instead.

    I'm always searching for new and good mixed drink recipes. Stuff that isn't sweet.

    List your favorite mixed drink and the recipe.





    My current favorite
    Drink: Vieux Carré aka 'Old Square'
    Recipe:
    1 oz Rye Whiskey
    1 oz Cognac
    1 oz Sweet Vermouth
    1 barspoon Bénédictine
    2 dashes Peychaud’s bitters
    2 dashes Angostura bitters
    Stir all ingredients with ice until cold. Strain into a chilled cocktail glass or over ice in a rocks glass. Express and garnish with lemon twist.

    Second Favorite is the Gin n' Tonic.

    i.e. it's a necessary but somewhat unpleasant chore and they want something to make the task a little easier and insulate them from the process."

            Old Fashioned (Bourbon or Rye)
            Manhattan (Rye), for a nice twist throw a small splash of Grand Marnier and orange bitters in

            Those are about the only two things I'll order when at a bar/nice restaurant. Possibly a Vodka Tonic if I'm feeling lame.

            However our favorite Italian place in town has two other cocktails that I will order there that are fantastic.

            BOB W (Best of both Worlds)
            - This is a pint of Coop DNR (OKC beer) 11% alcohol, then the pour a shot of Woodford Reserve on top. Incredibly well balanced and tasty, and STRONG.

            Aldo the Apache
            - George Dickel Tennessee Whiskey, Aperol, Grand Marnier, Sweet Vermouth...........forget the portions, have to look when I get home as I had the bartender give me the recipe.

                          The Bronx
                          This is a classic Prohibition-era cocktail
                          1 1/2oz Hayman's Old Tom Gin (a relative of London Dry Gin, but smoother with a touch of sweetness
                          1/2oz Dolin Dry Vermouth
                          1/2oz Dolin Sweet Vermouth
                          Juice of 1/2 orange, fresh squeezed

                          Pour all ingrediantes into a cocktail shaker filled with ice. Shake briefly. Strain into a Martini glass ('up' glass)

                          Ingredients are important! Don't use a shitty vermouth (Cinzano, Gallo, M&R, etc.). I love Dolin, but Noilly Pratt is good, too. And because Vermouth is a wine-bsed product, it doesn't keep forever (a few weeks, at most), and should be stored chilled.
