I am out of bourbon, cognac, vodka but have tequila and a lot of amaros/liqueurs so tried yesterday: Fernet, tequila, Giffard Banana & a little lime, NOPE. Right down the drain with that. Ended up with another pineapple variation; tequila, Heirloom Pineapple Amaro, a little of the banana liqueur, a little of roasted pineapple syrup, and some lime. More of a margarita variation, it was much better but not what I was aiming for.
I think the banana liqueur maybe needs to be saved for pancake batter or banana bread, it’s not bad I just can’t make it work in a drink.
What are you drinking this weekend?
I just went to the store to restock the bar. I got a bottle of Henry McKenna BiB, a liter of Grandad BiB, a handle of tequila (for palomas) a bottle of Fernet Branca, and a bottle of Malort
