Buds Special Cocktail
1 Dash Angostura Bitters
1/3 Sweet Cream (3/4 oz Whipping Cream)
2/3 Cointreau (1 1/2 oz Cointreau)
Stir (What? Shake!) well and strain into cocktail glass. (Orange Peel.)
I guess I had an idle hope that this would be something like a Creamsicle in drink form.
After tasting it, my response was, “Bleah! Bud, man, what were you thinking?”
I don’t normally have such a strong reaction to these cocktails, but, hopes dashed, down the sink after a couple sips.
This post is one in a series documenting my ongoing effort to make all of the cocktails in the Savoy Cocktail Book, starting at the first, Abbey, and ending at the last, Zed.
