Algonquin

Named for the New York Hotel, the Algonquin was a much derided cocktail. This updated version is a delightful blend of PostModern Spirits Hi, Rye Whiskey, the sweeter Bianco Vermouth, pineapple juice and a simple honey syrup. The result is a slightly more elegant and palatable cocktail than the original!

1.5 ounce PostModern Spirits Hi, Rye Whiskey
0.75 ounce Blanc/Bianco Vermouth
0.75 ounce Pineapple Juice
0.25 ounce Honey Syrup*

Tasting Notes:
