Review:

The "devil" is in this cocktail's hot spice. Obviously the garnish should not be eaten.

History:

Adapted from a recipe created by Tess Posthumus, Amsterdam, The Netherlands. To quote Tess, "A little devil in a glass. My first cocktail that made it onto the Door 74 menu back in 2010 and made it into Gaz Regan's 101 Best New Cocktails 2011."

Alcohol content:

  • 1.3 standard drinks
  • 19.87% alc./vol. (39.74° proof)
  • 18 grams of pure alcohol
