After Dinner

So another year is coming to an end and I’ve been meaning to find a cocktail that would be suitable to serve after the New Year’s dinner for our closest friends. Apart from the pre-dinner and midnight champagne cocktails I want to serve something that is not based on sparkling wine. One of my favorite Youtubers, Anders Erickson, posted this recipe and I couldn’t really imagine at all what this would taste like so this is something I had to try. This is by far the most adult cocktail I’ve tried ...

Combine the Italicus, Reposado tequila, dry sherry, and 1 teaspoon of the saline solution in a mixing glass with ice. Stir until well-chilled, then strain into a chilled coupe. I mixed approximately 1dl water and a teaspoon or two of salt and let the salt dissolve. If the solution is super salty just add a few drops but I mixed around a teaspoon in the drink.

Editor's Note

Italicus, Reposado tequila, and dry sherry converge in this sophisticated, spirit-forward sipper. A touch of saline rounds the edges, highlighting the bergamot and citrus aromatics.
