Just got a new issue of @bonappetitmagand found this recipe in it. The cocktail called for Suze but I chose to use some of my @breckdistillery Bitter liqueur because it looked like they had similar profiles. This cocktail tastes a bit like the fresh cousin of a Negroni. 🙂…
Last weekend Sean and I threw a 10-course meal with a few friends in our apartment. It’s been a tradition for the past couple years and the food and cocktails keep getting more and more complex as all of us grow more confident (and delightfully competitive :P) in the kitchen.
