Whiskies get invited to the Tiki party in this refreshing drink with a nice ginger bite from NoMad Bar in NYC
The mixture of two rye whiskies and overproof bourbon lends floral and spice elements that work very well with the ginger, vanilla, and citrus. The dash of absinthe and mint garnish add a pleasant aroma
1 oz Old Overholt Rye (lower proof, softer and a bit more floral)
1 oz Rittenhouse Rye (higher proof, more rye spice)
1 oz Old Grand-Dad 114 Proof Bourbon
.75 oz Fresh Grapefruit Juice
.75 oz Fresh Lemon Juice
.75 oz Ginger Syrup
.5 oz Vanilla Syrup
.25 oz Grenadine
Barspoon Lime Juice
3 dashes Angostura Bitters
2 dashes Absinthe
Zest from 1/2 lime
Shake with ice, strain into pilsner glass filled with crushed ice. Garnish with a sprig of mint
