Goodbye Horses

An elegant, full flavored Martini riff with stone fruit notes and subtle floral and herbal hints πŸΈπŸ‘πŸŒ± The additional floral and citrus peel notes that join the juniper in the German gin work very well with the stonefruit notes in the peach eau de vie. The blanc vermouth provides a hint of sweetness while also bringing hints of chamomile and citrus zest and the Becherovka adds a touch of baking spice and mild bittersweet notes that help balance the drink. Dashes of peach and rosemary/pink peppercorn bitters boost the stone fruit and herbal notes while the garnish adds pleasing herbal/citrus aroma 1.5 oz Gin (Monkey 47 from Germany has a great balance of juniper and other complex notes; Four Pillars is a good sub) .5 oz Peach Eau de Vie (unaged brandy distilled from ripe peaches; not to be confused with peach liqueur) .5 oz Blanc Vermouth (Dolin; a touch sweeter and more floral than dry vermouth) .5 oz Becherovka (Czech liqueur with subtle bittersweet flavor and notes of ginger and cinnamon) 1 dash Crude Rizzo Bitters (Rosemary, Pink Peppercorn, Grapefruit Zest; great to add a touch of herbal and savory to stirred clear spirit drinks) 1 dash Bitter Truth Peach Bitters Stir with ice and strain into a chilled coupe. Garnish with a lemon twist (express the essential oils over the drink first) and a sprig of fresh thyme
