Advanced Palate

An older one from not long after my cocktail journey began. A second success of combining Dark Tickle sauce with Newfoundland Distillery Co. spirit. Definitely a delicious downhome delight. Note: bakeapple and cloudberry are the same thing

Add mint and lemon juice to a cocktail shaker and muddle lightly. Add cloudberry and stir gently to combine. Add remaining ingredients and ice. Shake well, then fine strain into a highball glass. Add ice and top with ginger beer. Stir gently and garnish with a mint sprig.

Editor's Note

Cloudberry (bakeapple) brings a distinct, honeyed-tartness to this Newfoundland-inspired Buck. A refreshing, regional twist on a classic highball template.
