I didn't like the Petite Serve, and unfortunately, this wasn't any better. Strong Bourbon with very little else. I took great care in thoroughly stirring the drink. Still just doesn't do it for me. Am I doing something wrong?
Did you add the bitters?
The bitters is the key part of the process.
Boston glass, fill with ice, 6x dash of bitters and stir for 90 seconds. Drain off the water, the idea is the ice should only be coated in bitters and not have any liquid bitters in the bottom, then start adding the ingredients one at a time then stir, topping up with fresh ice throughout, storing for 90 seconds before adding each ingredient. Water from the ice as you stir is essential.
Refreshing and light, well balanced! Good double strain essential.
Cant wait to try it. Kudos Mr Watts
Remember what I said, double strain, and let the Vanilla Dusting sit on top of the drink, don’t stir it in.
