Instructions

The Metropolitan Twilight is a sophisticated, slightly smoky and complex cocktail that takes inspiration from the classic Suburban, foregoing the citrus for a more herbal, bitter, and nuanced profile. It's an ideal sipping drink for late evenings or as a fine dinner companion. This cocktail balances the rich notes of whisky with the herbal and sweet elements from select liqueurs and bitters, creating a unique and memorable experience. Ingredients: - 2 oz Glenlivet Single Malt Scotch Whisky - 1/2 oz Ruby Port - 1/4 oz Cherry Heering Liqueur - 1/4 oz Strega Liqueur - 2 dashes Peychaud's Bitters - 2 dashes Black Walnut Bitters - 1 bar spoon Honey (diluted with an equal part of water to make it mixable) - Garnish: Brandied Cherry Method: 1. In a mixing glass, combine Glenlivet Single Malt Scotch Whisky, Ruby Port, Cherry Heering Liqueur, and Strega Liqueur. 2. Add Peychaud's and Black Walnut Bitters. 3. Add the diluted honey for a touch of sweetness. 4. Fill the mixing glass with ice and stir until well chilled. 5. Strain into a chilled coupe glass. 6. Garnish with a brandied cherry on a skewer. Glass: - Coupe The Metropolitan Twilight offers a journey through a landscape of flavors, where the warmth of the Scotch whisky is perfectly complemented by the richness of Ruby Port and Cherry Heering, with Strega Liqueur adding an herbal whisper. The bitters blend introduces a dimension of depth, with the black walnut bitters echoing the whisky's inherent nuttiness, and the Peychaud's lending a light floral note. The honey ties all these diverse flavors together with a subtle sweetness, creating a refined and well-balanced drink. This cocktail is a testament to the art of mixology, showcasing how traditional elements can be reimagined into something entirely new and exciting.
