- Americano bianco – Sulphur Dioxide/Sulphites
Review:
Americano Bianco replaces maraschino liqueur to bring quinine notes to this aperitivo rendition of the classic Last Word.
History:
We have Jason E. Clapham from the St. Ewards MCR at Oxford to thank for this cocktail, who says, "I can't really claim to have invented it-the original Famous Last Word, a great drink from Red Light in Manchester, is exactly the same, but made with a Irish whiskey as the spirit base instead of gin, a cross between the Last Word and the Tipperary."
Alcohol content:
- 1.2 standard drinks
- 19.28% alc./vol. (38.56° proof)
