Chain of Fools

A refreshing fizz that highlights the sweet, slightly tart flavors of the pluot
The Navy Strength gin provides a sturdy base with some botanical notes that are supplemented by the floral pisco and tropical, slightly briny aguardiente. The pluot flavor is boosted by the honey-like notes in the agave syrup and plum bitters while the lemon brings tartness and the Club Soda adds bubbles
Muddle 2-3 slices of ripe pluot in .5 oz agave syrup (2:1 with water is using agave nectar)
Add:
1 oz Navy Strength Gin (Genius makes a nice version, as does Four Pillars, but sub in your favorite)
.5 oz Pisco (acholado varietal)
.5 oz Paranubes Oaxacan Rum (unaged Agricole is probably best sub)
.75 oz Fresh Lemon Juice
.25 oz Cocchi Americano (white wine based aperitif; can sub Kina L’Avion D’Or instead)
2 dashes Miracle Mile Ume Bitters
1 dash Miracle Mile Bergamot Bitters
Shake with ice and double strain into a chilled Collins glass with a few ice cubes. Top with 1-1.5 oz Club Soda. Garnish with a slice of pluot
