In celebration of America’s Native Spirit, here’s a token from our bartenders for #BourbonHeritageMonth. Try this recipe at home, or order one at The Hive’s bar all September long.
Point and A Half
1.5 oz Old Grand Dad
.75 oz Punt e Mes
.5 oz Luxardo Apricot Liqueur
2 dash Angostura
Stir with ice and strain into a chilled coupe. Express a lemon peel over the drink and use as garnish.
Punt e Mes is a Vermouth Amaro whose name translates to “point and a half” because of it’s extra bitterness. When combined with the rye forward mash bill of Old Grand Dad Bourbon and the stone fruit flavors of Luxardo Apricot, it creates a spin off of a Manhattan that is assertive with an extra touch of bitterness. Cheers!
