HILF 73 - The Toast with Jules and Uncle Brad

HILF: History I'd Like to F**k

Dawn's guests are two connoisseurs of drinking, Juliana McIntosh and Brad Sutton - the neice-and-uncle-team behind the hit podcast, The Art of Drinking. Jules is an influencer in the craft cocktail space (what?); and her real-life uncle Brad serves up classic cocktail recipes and history. Swoon!

**During the episode, we make and drink 2 cocktails!

Recipes and approximate time-code in the episode when we start making ours is below so you can toast along with us!

COCKTAIL #1 - The View Carre. [00:13:00]

• 3/4 oz Rye whiskey (higher proof, like 100 proof but not more. Rittenhouse makes a good one)
• 3/4 oz Cognac (I like Pierre Ferrand Ambre but Remy Martin VSOP works well too)
• 3/4 oz Strucchi Rosso Vermouth (or Dolin Rouge)
• 2 tsp Benedictine D.O.M. (make sure it's DOM and not B&B)
• 2 dash Peychaud's bitters (white label, red liquid)
• 1 dash Angostura bitters

1. In mixing glass add all ingredients and fill the mixing glass with ice so you have more ice than liquid.
2. Stir for 20 - 30 seconds.
3. Using hawthorn strainer, strain into chilled rocks glass over large cube
4. Garnish with lemon peel
   

COCKTAIL #2 - The Black Manhattan [00:40:00]

• 2 oz Rye whiskey (use your favorite Rye. The Rittenhouse might work well here, but could get hot)
• 1 oz Averna Amaro
• 1 dash Angostura bitters
• 1 dash Orange bitters

1. In mixing glass add all ingredients and fill the mixing glass with ice so you have more ice than liquid.
2. Stir for 20 - 30 seconds.
3. Using hawthorn strainer, strain into chilled coupe glass.
4. Garnish with brandied cherry / luxardo cherry (or something similar) - just drop it in or put it on a pick if you're fancy
