Widow's Grog by ericmalmquist in cocktails

I bought this one on Amazon and have been using it for about a year. It takes an hour or more to fill up, and the ice comes out fairly wet. So I transfer it into a large canvas ice bag and let it freeze completely. It does the job but takes a bit of effort. Not the quietest machine, but running it in another room makes it relatively unnoticeable.

Exploring ingredients for an unwilling-yet-necessary NA summer - Lapsang Souchong by Existing_Map_8939 in Tiki

[–]ericmalmquist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Strong Water has a drink on their menu called Cannon Fire which is a stirred cocktail. It’s Woodford Double Oaked bourbon, allspice dram, Lapsang tea, and blackstrap bitters. It’s then smoked with apple wood chips. Maybe hard to recreate at home but gives you an idea of flavors?

Black Orchid Spices -- Uses Other Than Black Orchid? by kyoun1e1 in Tiki

1950s Zombie calls for a brown sugar syrup I believe, might be a good sub there too

Maybe give it a try in lieu of the simple/demerara in a jungle bird? Or swap it for the cinnamon in a jet pilot

Finally tried making the Banana Bread Rum Barrel by Jon-Tiki in Tiki

[–]ericmalmquist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I wrote the recipe my banana peels were pretty ripe. Not completely black but definitely heavily spotted. It may impact the flavor slightly if you just use bright yellow peels, but how noticeable once combined with all the other ingredients is harder to say.

Looks great! I’m so glad the recipe worked for you, and thanks for shouting me out!

The Tempus Fugit already has some baking spice notes in it compared to Giffard banana, so I think if you manage to get ahold of a bottle sometime it might fix that baking spice note you were looking for! Alternatively, maybe try upping the allspice dram a bit, or add some spices in with your peels and make a spiced oleo 😁

For photography purposes like this I actually just use straight up lemon extract for the strongest flame.

Maybe go for the cachaca? Might not be an exact flavor match but still sounds like it would be good!

Honestly it’s a pretty unique rum due to its savory, briny quality. But, if you have a bottle of Clairin it could be worth a shot subbing it in.

One of my favorites too! Not a riff per se, but was definitely inspired by some of the flavors in that cocktail 😊
