Who knew the ABC website let you just search avaibility! Do you guys think a better gin should be used than Bombay?
Anyways:
An ounce each of gin, chartreuse, Luxardo cherry liqueur, and lime juice. Garnished with a store bought cherry.
I’m not really a sour or citrus juice guy (can hurt my gums) but this drink is very good. Very refreshing. Fruity and herbal. Will be trying the Naked and Famous as well as a chartreuse Manhattan soon.
This is one of my favorite cocktails, and I’ve made it with all sorts of variations. My favorite gin for this is Ransom Old Tom Gin. The original was better but the current version is still close enough.
If you’re feeling experimental, I recommend subbing the gin for Rhum Agricole. It’s got a grassy finish that (IMHO) works perfectly with the chartreuse.
Interesting! Never seen rhum argicole but I’ll look it up
