A cocktails of this name appeared in the series Black Mirror. The episode was Hotel Reverie. In the series the cocktail appears clear and a poison was added.
As far as the real Black Rose presented here I think it is excellent.

Very close to a Lemon Drop. Regardless both recipes are a hit. I use Mandarin Napoleon orange liqueur.

This is not a cocktail I want every day but when I shake one up I always love. Bartenders tend to change things up slightly on a classic cocktail, give it a different name, and pat themselves on the back for being such brilliant mixologist. But this one is like nothing else. I’m glad I’m reasonably well stocked with Chartreuse, for now. Oh and speaking of changing things up slightly, the Chefs Kiss cocktail is also great.

Made as per directions and I really like. May swap out rye for the scotch, understanding this becomes a very different cocktail. But my friends who like black Manhattans, but don’t like scotch, may dig.
