Comment:

This variation on the classic Satan’s Whiskers calls for it not to be ‘curled’ (as is the case when you use triple sec), but to be ‘marcelled’, apparently a deep soft wave in one’s hair (for those that still have some) created with curling tongs and popular in the 1920s and 1930s.

Variant:

Satan's Whiskers (Straight) Satan's Whiskers (Curled) Satan's Whiskers (Enroulée)

About:

Adapted from a drink created in 2011 by William "Chili Bill" Eichinger at Finnegan's Wake, San Francisco, USA and courtesy of Gaz Regan’s Ardent Spirits.
