Junes theme will be “favorite niche spirit”, so any cocktail where the base ingredient is not bourbon, gin, rum, rye, tequila, vodka etc would qualify. So whether you choose Mezcal or Armagnac get creative and showcase your favorite niche spirit.
To participate:
Have your post up on your blog by midnight on Monday June 20th. If you don’t have a blog email me at filip {at} adventuresincocktails {dot} com by Saturday June 18th with your submission and I will include it in my round-up post.
You will also need to link to this blog and link the Mixology Monday logo to their web site. Last but not least reply to this post with a link to your submission. I will post a round-up post on Tues/Weds that will have all the entries.
For more info on participating visit the mixology monday.

Liquor but not liqueur?

It could be a liqueur if it’s the primary ingredient. But the idea is to work with something other than the standard 5 or so base spirits.

Oops, I’m an idiot and just realized that I was a week early for the event (I put it on my calender wrong). Since I already posted it, here it is:

Is it acceptable if the drink (a four ingredient cocktail) uses two non traditional ingredients (a bitters and Applejack) for the base (equal proportions of the two)?

Thanks for the submission, it looks great!

Ereich,
As long as you feel the drink really highlights a niche spirit then it’s acceptable, thanks for participating!

Filip,
Thanks for the response. Here is my contribution for the month. I wanted to share a recipe of a bartender friend of mine (with his permission of course), which is a fantastic drink that demonstrates the flavors of Cynar and Applejack pretty well.

Thanks for hosting this month’s MxMo. I love the theme, and it got be to reach a bit farther back into the spirits cabinet for some Pisco.
I don’t have a regular blog, but rather I curate a shared craft cocktail database. So I’ve added an entry for my cocktail and left a comment with the story. Click on the photo to download a higher resolution version of the image.

Damn, was that the sound of midnight whistling past? No matter — I a few minutes behind, but I have a lovely pisco drink in front of me, so all’s well. Here’s my post:
