A Prosperous New Year

Answer 1

1.5 oz skyy
3/4 oz lime
1/4 oz chareau
1/4 oz green chartreuse
1/4 oz simple syrup
Sprig of mint

Shake and strain into a coupe. Garnish with a floated mint leaf and drop with a $2 bill as a coaster.

Question 2

2 oz chipotle infused altos
1 oz lime
3/4 grenadine*
1/4 ancho reyes
thin cucumber disc

Shake and strain all ingredients, including cucumber, into a coupe rimmed with ash salt. Garnish with a cucumber sprinkled in ash salt.

Question 3

Coco d’Oro

Answer 3

2 oz coconut washed el silencio
1 oz lemon
1/2 oz salted cardamom syrup
1/2 oz honey
1/4 oz turmeric juice
1/4 oz ginger

Shake and strain over a big cube, garnish with black pepper on top of the cube. We’ll probably end up mixing the cardamom syrup and the honey into one bottle for easier execution.

Question 4

Hangman’s Goose

Answer 4

1.5 oz Grey Goose
1 oz red bull syrup*
3/4 oz lemon juice
3/4 oz st germain
3 oz soda water

Build in a collins full of ice, and top with a small layer of cream on top. Garnish with a flower. If someone seems unsure about the cream we will do it without, but strongly encourage them to drink it with. There’s not much and it makes a big difference.

Question 5

Cowboy Bebop

Answer 5

2 oz kikori
1/2 oz miso honey syrup*
3/4 oz rice vinegar
1/4 oz benedictine
1/4 oz mandarine napolean
3 drops sesame oil
3 drops soy sauce

Shake and fine strain into a miso bowl, garnish with a spanked shiso leaf. I might make the miso honey into a shrub. We’ll see.

Question 6

Treasure of the Sierra Madre

Answer 6

2 oz Bacardi
3/4 oz passionfruit syrup (3 parts simple:1 part passionfruit puree)
1/2 oz lime juice
1/4 oz orgeat
1/4 oz apricot liq.
5 dashes angostura

Shake briefly and strain into a double rocks glass. Overfill with crushed ice and liberally sprinkle glitter around it. The presentation for this is still a little bit up in the air, but will likely involve gold coins and other fun nonsense.
