Benedetto

Amaro Alpino, Chamomile Liqueur, UpRoot Gin

The Bendedetto is a spiced winter cocktail that came as quite a blessing to the PostModern Bartending Family. After struggling mightily to mesh the unique spice structures of the UpRoot Gin & the Amaro Alpino, a breakthrough was finally achieved with the addition of PostModern Spirits Chamomile Liqueur. The honey-like nuance of the floral Chamomile Liqueur rounded out the spicy structures of the UpRoot Gin & the Amaro Alpino.
