It’s like melting apple, cherry and lime Jolly Ranchers and adding booze. And I mean that in the best way possible.
This is really good, what elevates the drink is both the mole bitters and the flamed orange peel. I’d never tried flaming a coin of peel before, so watched several YouTube videos and had pretty good success- it really does make a difference in the taste!
Fantastic drink, well balanced. Never would have put tequila and crème de cassis together, but trust a bartender from NOLA to add the perfect French touch.
So good, really enjoy this. My orgeat isn’t especially potent so I used the original equal parts recipe which I thought was perfect. Also passed the orange zest lightly around the edge of the glass and that was just enough orange fragrance.
Tried for the first time, agree it’s a delicious after supper sipper. Swapped in China-China for the Amer since I’m in the US, thought it worked great. May try the alternate measurements (45/45/10/10) next time I make it.
