A Bird Born Of Fire
Well, you may have thought I was done for the evening (as I did), but the bottles started speaking to me as I sauntered by. I don’t have a story that accompanies this drink, other than it was sent to me through the ether……which is enough for me.
I give you the
Phoenix
2 oz of Diabolique Bourbon
1/2 oz of Heering Cherry
1/4 oz of Vya Dry Vermouth
1/8 oz of Fonseca Bin No. 27 Port
1 dash of Regan’s Orange Bitters
Stir with generous amounts of large, fresh ice for approximately 40 seconds. Strain into a cocktail glass and flame an orange peel over the drink. Bend the peel slightly and float on top as shown.
