Cocktail

Method

Cocktail

  1. 1

    Combine ingredients

    Add 2 oz bourbon, 1/2 oz allspice dram, 3/4 oz fresh lime juice, 1/4 oz simple syrup and 2 dashes Angostura bitters into a cocktail shaker.

  2. 2

    Add ice and shake

    Fill the shaker with ice (about 1 cup) and shake vigorously for 12–18 seconds, until the outside of the shaker is well chilled and a good froth forms from the citrus.

  3. 3

    Strain

    Double-strain (or fine-strain) the cocktail into a chilled coupe or Nick & Nora glass to remove small ice shards and any pulp.

Garnish & Serve

  1. 4

    Express the oils of a lime twist over the drink and drop the twist into the glass, or float a lime wheel on the surface. Optionally grate a small pinch of fresh nutmeg over the top for an aromatic finish.

  2. 5

    Serve immediately.
