Basil Limoncello Spritz
The lemon-forward spritz you’ve been looking for 🍋
Together with my friends at luxardousa we’re making a Limoncello Spritz to soak up all the #AperitivoHour vibes this summer. This one uses #Luxardo Limoncello which is made the old-fashioned way in Italy, using the traditional method of infusing alcohol with lemon peels, pulp and juice with REAL lemons harvested in southern Italy. Their Limoncello isn’t just great in a spritz, it can be enjoyed straight up and chilled, or on the rocks with soda or tonic water as well.
As with any spritz, keep it easy and fun! I encourage you to add a fun garnish to add a fun garnish of your own. I used basil to keep with the Italian flavors but also because we know how well basil pairs with the brightness of lemon.
Anyways, I hope you give this one a try this summer!
Wednesday not Tuesday
Well’p, if y’all have been following along, you know that two of my favorite things are a stiff Boulevardier and coming up with twists on a classic. This one is no different, the herbal notes of Chartreuse with the addition of grapefruit bitters takes the place of Campari in a funky yet delicious variation. Give it a shot.
Tiki Old Fashioned Vol.2
Heard it was #NationalRumDay…
If you’re into funky Jamaican rums and Old Fashioneds, this is the recipe for you.
The Greenpoint
I promised cocktails from @katherinebrasserie at the gorgeous @kimpton @thecardinalws in Winston-Salem, NC - so here’s the first! Its a great balance of sweet, herbal and spicy. The Old Overholt Rye plays nicely with the Carpano Antica and Yellow Chartreuse to create a sturdy, complex cocktail.
PIŃA VERDE
Alright @notjustabartender, you convinced me…
Some people are out there hoarding their Green Chartreuse and some of us are using it as a base spirit 😂 This one is like if a Piña Colada and a Chartreuse Swizzle had a baby and served it over crushed ice in a Coco Lopez can. A big thank you Erick Castro-Diaz (@hungrybartender) for this spec. Absolutely incredible.
