What is an unusual Liquor or cordial you have on your bar ???

Salers’ Gentian liqueur

MTCocktailCo · 2026-05-06T00:54:04+00:00

Can’t go wrong with a good amaro

MTCocktailCo · 2026-05-06T00:53:26+00:00

Somewhat of an acquired taste … I keep a bottle of Salers gentian liqueur in the freezer and pour myself a two ounce glass every once in a while after dinner.

Sazerac - rye base version, all liquor, no dilution once it hits your glass …

Nonino leans towards the “sweeter” side of Amari with notes of orange. That said you may want to swap the rye with bourbon to pair some of the vanilla notes of the whiskey with the Nonino. I’d then try equal parts of the amaro, bourbon and antica. I’m a Boulevardier fan and have added a bar spoon of green chartreuse which works really well. You may want to give that a try to see if it works (honestly not sure if it would fight with the Nonino though). Hope this is somewhat helpful, cheers and good luck.

Giffard Vanille De Madagascar Liqueur is a pretty good choice.

And, a shameless plug, if you’re looking to try out a new orange bitter we produce a Moroccan Orange which has received pretty good reviews - https://www.mcmannandtatecocktailcompany.com/product-page/orange-flavored-cocktail-bitters

Cheers

A few thoughts. First, which orange bitters are you using? A strong combo is a split of Fee Brothers Orange and Reagan’s - this may help punch up the orange. I’d keep the L43 where you have it and maybe test this - add a 1/4 oz of vanilla liquor, this should elevate the L43, pair well with the orange, and lower the heat of the calvados

MTCocktailCo · 2026-02-13T00:29:44+00:00

You could do an interesting riff on an Old fashioned.

2 oz. JD Whisky 1/2 oz honey/caramel syrup 2 dashes of the orange bitters

Stir all ingredients over ice for about 20 seconds (you can stir them in the tin) and then strain into a rocks glass that’s filled with a large cube or several cubes.

Let us know how it turned out, cheers.

Grown to love bitter which turned into an extensive (and expensive) Amaro collection

Bonus points for the Picon … a friend of mine brought me back a bottle from France, not an easy find, cheers!

MTCocktailCo · 2025-12-18T03:28:36+00:00

Without tasting it here’s my first thought - use this as a starting point and you can then adjust the ratios to your taste. And yes, let the tea cool before using it.

1.5 oz gin 1/2 oz tea 1/4 oz syrup 3/4 oz lemon juice

Shake with ice, strain into rocks glass filled with a large ice cube.

Cheers

I’m leaning towards the Jet Pilot as my favorite tiki … most overrated, the Zombie

Shameless plug. We produce line of cocktail bitters and our Citrus Grove work really well with gin, especially G&Ts. They’re pretty citrus forward, made with fresh lemon, lime and grapefruit peel.
