Martini used Monin Butterscotch Syrup with added salt as his special ingredient. I've replaced with Monin Syrup and added saline solution to the ingredients.
Thank you!
Where, or what, is "Special Ingredient #1"?
I tried the above version and a second version with Luxardo Bitter Bianco instead of dry vermouth. The original was somewhat tepid, as already mentioned here, but with the Bitter Bianco it was quite interesting. I will try 1 oz Bitter Bianco instead of 1.5 oz the next time...
I followed the recipe and ended up with a very strong mezcal flavored drink. Seemed even at 1/2 ounce to overpower the drink or maybe that is the flavor
It depends on the mezcal you use; more mineral flavor or more smokey...
I think this can be a excellent cocktail!
If done with a quality pear liqueur the pear flavor is there but not overpowering.
